Petroff, Boris

Actor
Date and place of birth: 04.11.1939, Bucharest
Studies: Institute of Theatre and Cinematography "ILCaragiale" Bucharest, 1963
From the institute he came directly to Oradea, where, unfortunately, he did not act to the best of his talent, although he appeared in eleven roles over the three seasons. However, he showed his qualities in roles such as Rodolfo in Arthur Miller's "A View from the Bridge" or Eli Liber in Irwin Shaw's "The Blackmail". Valentin Chifor recorded his exemplary participation in the success of the show "View from the Bridge", signed by Valeriu Grama, in the role of Rodolfo, alongside his talented colleague, Vasile Constantinescu. In the role of Captain Mârzea ("Mihai Viteazul. Călugăreni" by Octav Dessila) he brought a robustness and enthusiasm that added extra credibility to the captain. He transferred to the "Ion Creangă" Theater in the capital, where he became a regular actor in the troupe. He appeared in several TV shows and performances, as well as in numerous films.
