Stepan Yakovlevich Kajukow ( Russian Степан Яковлевич Каюков * July 21 . Jul / 2. August  1898 greg. In Saratov , Russian Empire ; † 22. January 1960 in Moscow ) was a Russian and Soviet theater - and film - actor .

Life and accomplishments

Kajukow was born as the son of Jakow Gawrilowitsch Kajukow (1863-1919), who worked in a mineral oil company, and the housewife Anna Sacharowna Kajukowa (1870-1930). In 1910 he graduated from the four-class school in his hometown, then took on various positions for two years and from 1912 worked in a printing company for four years.

From 1914 Kajukow first appeared in his hometown as an extra and from 1916 also in larger roles at the theater, including in Gogol's The Auditor and Leonid Andrejews Дни нашей жизни ( Dni naschei schisni ). Between 1915 and 1917 he took acting lessons for the first time.

The conscription into the Tsarist Army in June 1917 briefly interrupted Kajukov's early career. After the October Revolution , however, he was able to devote himself to the stage again, gained experience at several provincial theaters and, at the same time, completed an acting training with Illarion Nikolayevich Pewzow in Moscow. By 1946, Kajukow appeared for various houses in Saratov, Chernihiv , Arkhangelsk , Kiev , Tashkent , Chernihiv, Moscow and Leningrad . His places of work included the Moscow miniature theater “Palas” (1924–1925), the Leningrad Satire Theater (1928–1931), the Leningrad Music Hall (1931–1933) and the Moscow Drama Theater (1943–1946). Then in 1946 Kajukow moved to the Maly Theater , where he made his debut on June 21 of the same year as the leading actor in Gorky's petty bourgeoisie . This was followed by many well-known plays such as Shakespeare's What You Want , Shaw's Pygmalion , Gogol's The Auditor , Gorky's Barbarian and Alexei Tolstoy's Ivan the Terrible . Kajukow said goodbye on January 24, 1952 with the role of Artemew in Lev Tolstoy's The Living Corpse . He then appeared at the Mossoviet Theater until 1957 , including in Кто смеётся последним by Kondrat Krapiwa and in an adaptation of Gorky's Drei Menschen .

Kajukov's film career began in 1931 with Златые горы ( Slatye gory ). Up until his death he was involved in over 50 works, including four times as a voice actor. The dark-haired mime served numerous genres. After his first major role in Maxim's Youth (1935), a biographical work about Maxim Gorky, he played in many films with socio-political and historical content in the late 30s and 40s, but also in the comedy Young Life (Tractorists) (1939) . Kayukov was often seen as a member of the military or navy. In Маска ( Maska , 1938), a short film based on Anton Chekhov's The Mask , he gave the manufacturer Yegor Nilytsch Pyatigorow. He was also present to a younger audience through his participation in four fairy tale films and in Принц и нищий ( Prinz i nischtschi , 1942), an adaptation of Mark Twain's The Prince and the Begging Boy .

Kajukow was initially considered a reliable actor with great devotion to directors and the audience, but his alcohol consumption increasingly led to disciplinary proceedings against him. As a result of drinking, he also had to receive medical treatment several times.

Kajukow was married to the artist Tatiana Dmitrijewna Bragischewa (1909–1985), who took his family name after the marriage. Both are buried in the Vvedenskoye cemetery .
