Acting seems to be a great passion of yours: you even have an award from the festival in Pomorie. What role earned you that award? Tell us more about the play and your role in it.
Acting is definitely my passion. I have entered quite a few competitions and received certificates and awards. My latest certificate is from the Theatre Festival in Pomorie. It is for the leading male role in the production we performed, "The Knot of Love", based on comedies by W. Shakespeare and C. Goldoni. I play Puck, the mischief-maker who unintentionally creates comic situations.
What roles have you played, and what would you like to play in the future? Do you prefer performing on stage, or would you like to act in films, and why?
So far, I think I’ve mostly played villains: the Wolf in "The Wolf and the Seven Young Goats", Iliya the owl in "Dangerous Adventures of Sweet-Voiced Heroes", Lisko in "Dindi", and now Puck in "The Knot of Love". I don’t have a preferred type of role, but I’d like to try playing a good character too. I would also like to act in films. That’s why I asked my mother to enrol me in the Film Academy for Talents. I still attend. It’s different there. It’s nothing like theatre, which makes it very interesting to me. Natalia Dukova and Tsvyatko Tsenov contribute to that too. They are the people who hold our attention and make things interesting.
Who supports your acting, and do you have plans for the future?
My parents give me the most support. My mother is there for me in difficult moments; she gives me strength and encouragement.
I would really love to experience the magic of cinema and take part in a film. It’s both a dream and a plan!
