Redhead from KVN 25 I am Anna Smirnova. All Voronezh KVN

The 25th KVN team is an unusual line-up from Voronezh, which swept like a hurricane through the Major League of the Cheerful and Resourceful Club in 2010 and 2011. This team impressed the audience and the jury members from the first minutes of their acquaintance not only with its name, but also with its unusual line-up and high-quality humor. What was so surprising about the 25th KVN team from Voronezh?

The creation of the KVN team The 25th falls on 2003. At the Construction University of Voronezh, there was already an active team of the Club of the cheerful and resourceful, and it consisted only of male representatives. At first, the girls tried to enlist the support of local kvnschikov, helping them create props for humorous scenes. But the young people could not appreciate the help and refused to accept the girls in the team. At that time, KVN of Voronezh University was created in auditorium number 25. It was here that the girls met and decided to create their own university women's team, and the auditorium number became a symbolic and sonorous name.

In the same 2003, the girls managed to get the championship in the student league of Voronezh, where Nina Petrosyants noticed them and took them under her wing. Under her leadership, the KVN team "25th" climbed to the pinnacle of glory.

2004-2006

From 2004 to 2006, "25th" takes part in various festivals of the country, gaining experience and improving their ability to behave on stage. During this time, they managed to show themselves in the Chernozem region, on the Start stage, as well as in the Krasnodar Territory. Unfortunately, they did not manage to become champions, but the girls invariably reached the finals of the competitions and won prizes.

2007-2008

2007 and the first significant victory. The composition of KVN "25th" from Voronezh takes part in the First League. The girls made it to the finals, but couldn't go any further. However, they did not get upset and went to conquer the Premier League.

2008 and the first in the life of the "25th" Premier League team. The participants noted that they were afraid to fly out after the first performance, but then all their fears disappeared, and they won an honorable second place. However, for some reason, "25th" did not get into the Major League. Such a case was the first in the history of the Club of Cheerful and Resourceful. Previously, Premier League finalists could not get into HSE only if they had already been its participants in previous years, but newcomers usually always had the opportunity to show themselves on the KVN Big Stage.

2009-2011

In any case, the girls did not get upset and again took part in the Premier League, but already in 2009. There were two options for the team here. If events developed according to one scenario, then the preparation could be insufficient, which would ensure the failure of the speeches. But the "25th", although the women's team, but in perseverance she does not hold. In 2009, the composition of KVN "25th" repeated its success and again became the silver medalist of the Premier League. And this time they were already able to take part in HSE.

2010 was the most successful year for the 25th. First of all, thanks to participation in the Major League. From the very first games, the girls purposefully moved towards the desired goal. Many difficulties awaited them along the way, because traditionally women's KVN teams are considered weak, so the participants had to make a lot of efforts to prove that they deserve to perform with men's teams.

One eighth of the final "25th passed" easily and with a significant margin from rivals, but then the girls had a much more difficult time. In the quarterfinals, they had to fight against the national team of Dnepropetrovsk and the favorites of the "Buck-Accomplices" team. Having taken the second place, "25th" reached the semi-finals, losing only to the team of the Krasnodar Territory.

The girls prepared very seriously for the semifinals, because their rivals were again Dnepropetrovsk, the experienced Triod and Diod, as well as the original Kefir team. According to the results of the competition, the girls again took the lead by a wide margin, and reached the final of the Major League. Here, unfortunately, they did not have enough experience and time to prepare, so the “25th” showed an average result and took the last, fourth place.

However, participation in the finals of the Major League of the women's team is an achievement in itself, which did not go unnoticed. In 2010, the KVN team "25th" received the official status of the Voronezh Region National Team.

In 2011, the "25th" tried their luck again in the Major League, but could only reach the semi-finals of the game. After that, the girls decided that it was time to leave KVN for new participants.

Composition of the KVN team "25th"

The composition of the KVN team "25th" deserves special attention, because this is one of the smallest teams, which, moreover, for the most part consisted of girls. Only one young man took part in the main team - Roman Kolesnikov, who, contrary to expectations, was not the captain of the team.

Yulia Akhmetova is the captain of the 25th, under whose strict guidance the team was able to achieve unprecedented success for the women's team. Today, Julia has not been able to completely abandon her humorous career and is a regular participant in the StandUp show. It is noteworthy that Ruslan Bely, who “lit up” in the 25th games in 2007, sometimes performs with her. In addition, Ruslan is an active resident of the Comedy Club.

Anna Borodina stood out from the general composition of the participants with her image of a strong girl. It was she who always took on the roles of "gopniks" and "cattle". As it turned out, this could not but affect her backstage life. In one of the interviews, Anna admitted that she got a job, but after the next broadcast of KVN with her participation, Anna was suddenly fired.

Anna Smirnova was remembered by viewers mainly because it was on her shoulders that the duty to announce the numbers of the national team fell. However, this duty did not bother her at all, because the girl was in the national team from the very beginning, from that same 25th audience.

Natalya Chebotareva joined the team a little later than the rest of the participants, but remained with her until the very end.

The best jokes

Did you call a women's taxi?

- Yes.

— Neighing or go where?

- Neighing.

— Well then, get out, she's just parking now.

- An interesting observation: the party of nudists always shows whether they like the adopted law or not.

- At the crash test of the new BelAZ model, eyewitnesses saw how a concrete obstacle tried to crawl away.

"25th" is a wonderful team that showed that there is also a place for women's teams on the KVN stage and they are able to joke no worse (and often even much better) than their male counterparts. And although the girls did not manage to reach the championship, they left their successors the opportunity to repeat their success and win the pinnacle of fame.

Leonid Yarmolnik liked the wit and artistry of our fellow countrymen so much that he suggested: “Voronezh should be taken to the “tower”. And thanks to the support of Gusman, Maslyakov agreed.

Change text size: A A

The team of the Voronezh University of Architecture and Civil Engineering made it to the top league of KVN! She was promised a place there at the end of 2008, but then it did not work out. But at the last final of the Premier League, the 25th again showed itself brightly, although it lost the first place to the MGIMO Parapaparam team (by only 0.4 points!). "Jury" game Garik Martirosyan, Dmitry Nagiyev, Leonid Yarmolnik, Mikhail Efremov and Julius Gusman. Martirosyan praised the Voronezh residents for the commercial made for the "homework" contest. And Leonid Yarmolnik liked the wit and artistry of our countrymen so much that he suggested: “Voronezh should be taken to the “tower”! And thanks to the support of Julius Gusman, Alexander Maslyakov agreed. So now, finally, "25th" will represent Voronezh in the games of the Major League - none of the teams in our region has achieved such high results over the past 15 years!

All KVN players dream of getting into the big leagues, but our dream has come true, - the happy guys say. - And not only with us, but most importantly - with the founder of the team, Nina Stepanovna Petrosyants. She dreamed that the Voronezh team would again play in the big leagues, as in the mid-80s. It's scary, of course, but we will try so that Alexander Vasilyevich Maslyakov does not regret it!

Yellow press helps to write jokes

The 25th has been in existence since 2003. Now there are five of them on the stage: four fragile girls and the only guy. Julia, Natasha, two Anya and Stas. "Komsomolskaya Pravda" met with the guys and found out what it's like for them to play in KVN.

- All of you have already graduated from the construction university. So you will continue to play, will this become your profession?

Natasha Chebotareva: - I study in the magistracy, I will work in my specialty - a bridge designer. Anya and Stas are already working as designers.

Yulia Akhmedova: - I work as a methodologist at our university and study in graduate school. Anya Smirnova - financial manager. So we will earn money, because we provide for ourselves, we rent apartments. And, thank God, we have such wonderful jobs, from which we are regularly released for two weeks to prepare for the game. Because KVN is our life...

Anya Smirnova: - No, it's a disease.

Julia: - ... this is communication, friends, creative realization.

- Have you been invited to be creatively realized in humorous show projects yet? In the Comedy Club, almost everyone left KVN ...

Julia: - We were invited to the big leagues! And the guys from Comedy finished with KVN. And we haven't gotten tired of it yet. We will leave KVN unless we get married. By the way, that's why we play, because KVN players are mostly guys - completely interesting and smart!

- Flattered that Yarmolnik asked for you?

Julia: - We were very pleased. It was touching. Real emotions. And unexpectedly. After the game, Artem Mikhalkov came up, said that they performed well.

How do you come up with jokes?

Anya S.: - There is a special person who tortures Yulia with a shocker when she falls asleep over inventing jokes.

Julia: - Seriously, we get together a month before the game and write 24 hours, breaking away only to have a bite to eat. Because if you wait for the joke to come spontaneously, you can not wait. The game won't be cancelled. So we force ourselves. We choose topics and start, starting from some events, joking.

- Where are you looking for topics? Some comedians, not bothering themselves much, steal jokes from the KVN people ...

Anya S.: - Using other people's jokes in KVN is strictly prohibited. And we look for topics in different places, for example, in newspapers - we strive to be relevant.

Julia: - We buy a whole package of yellow magazines and read them from cover to cover. Because there are sometimes very funny things. We take note of them. Well, life throws up cases. Some situation amused, and we are trying to bring it to the point of absurdity - it turns out even funnier.

To whom to sell 12 pajamas?

- In one of the rooms of the game you used a huge bed. The viewers of the program asked on the forum: did the girls bring her straight from Voronezh?

Anya Borodina: - Anya and Natasha are very strong girls and dragged the bed from the Ikea store.

Julia: - Often it turns out that the numbers prepared at home are thrown out of the program on the run. And the joke with the bed was approved for us two days before the game. So the girl's bed was actually obtained on the day when it was already necessary to show the program to Alexander Vasilyevich. By the way, it was not only brought, but also practically assembled by the girls. Stas and our sound engineer Roma said that everything would be ready in ten seconds. But after a while, the same constructor was scattered on the floor. And the girls and I assembled it ... So we brought these beds not from Voronezh, but to Voronezh. And now we are selling. One has already been sold for 1000 rubles. It's a shame, after all, when so much money is spent on props, and often for nothing. Just recently, in our homework, extras in pajamas were supposed to come out. We bought 12 pieces, and this number was cut out. And now what to do with them? Or sell too, or specially come up with another joke for these pajamas.

- Do you buy props with your own money?

Our university helps. In general, the support of the university is very important for us - both the trade union committee of students and fans. And they are such good fellows with us - they somehow organize themselves, come to our games.

Stas: - At our first performance, we were even surprised when they began to shout “Voronezh” in the hall. We think: who is this, where from?

Julia: - It was last year. There, for some teams, entire sectors came to cheer, and for the "25th" ... six people. It turned out that these were guys from the Institute of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, they went to Moscow and accidentally came to us. And, by the way, then the six of them shouted down everyone! We are friends with them now. Since then, fans have been coming to us from their native university in whole buses. There were 200 people at the last game!

On stage, it reduces lips and legs, and blouses are unbuttoned

- Stas, is it hard to be alone among girls? They don't offend?

It’s not hard for me: I have three sisters at home. And the team does not offend me. On the contrary, they cherish and cherish. They are preparing food for me.

Julia: - We give him things to vilify.

- I see that you are the same comedians in ordinary life. And the game is not funny?

Julia: - Of course. For example, once my lip became numb due to nerves. I sing a song, the sound somehow goes on, but I don’t feel anything. It's like having a tooth freeze. I had to knead my lip right on the stage. So at the next game, I panicked that my mouth would hurt again. And when the lip began to go numb again, I even had to drink from a requisite bottle with the inscription "whiskey". It looked comical from the outside.

Anya S.: - Once on stage, my fingers in my shoes crumpled. They leaned back. It hurts terribly to stand, but you still have to walk!

Julia: - I once drove a splinter in my leg. It was at the beginning of our journey to KVN. There was no money to buy the same shoes for everyone, so we performed barefoot. It has even become our thing. True, when we entered the first league and came to perform in Sochi, the director, when he saw us, said: “Oh, my God!” I had to buy some Czechs.

- Have there been any other funny cases?

Julia: - Once at the semi-final my blouse was unbuttoned at the most piquant place. Homework is going on - according to the plot, Anya and I are sitting on the couch, we get up, and suddenly I see: Anya's eyes are rounding. It turns out that my blouse almost broke up to the stomach. And fastening it quickly is unrealistic - the buttons are small, the fingers are sweaty from excitement and do not obey. I buttoned up right in the course of the game, standing up somehow half-sided. It was terribly uncomfortable.

Lucky rhinestones and number 25

How did this form come about?

Julia: - At the beginning we performed in black turtlenecks. And then we were told that the final of the first league is a very serious thing, it obliges us to a lot. And we began to think, what is the best way to look? And they remembered the team "Seventh Heaven" of our aviation school. They performed in military uniform, and their snow-white shirts looked so beautiful and bright. We called Ruslan Bely (the winner of "Laughter without rules" in 2007 and a regular participant in the "Slaughter League" left this team. - Ed.) And asked what the shirts were made of. He said that from the cheapest fabric. We bought linen for the sheets and plain black fabric. And they came up with a logo to embroider on the shoulder.

- What is this symbol?

Julia: - It was necessary to decorate the screen with which we performed. Draw a girl. And we liked it so much that we made it our logo. By the way, before the performance in the Premier League final, we decided to somehow look more spectacular. Suddenly we will go to the highest - we must be on top! And we decided to decorate the logo with rhinestones. The performance is on the nose, we need to rehearse, and we are sitting, gluing rhinestones.

- Rhinestones turned out to be happy - they helped to get to the “tower”. Do you have any clues?

Julia: - The worse we perform at the final run, the better the game. And there is also a sign about the number 25. If we see these numbers somewhere before the game, everything will be fine. Once, before a performance, I was sitting on the street and worried. Suddenly I see: there is a crane nearby, a load is hanging on it, and 25 is written on the load. I immediately calmed down. And everything went well.

- Do they recognize you in the city, ask for autographs?

Yes. We sit once in a pizzeria, we write jokes. Suddenly the girl comes up: “Hello, can I get an autograph? Are you from RUDN?” We say: “Well, yes. Nearly".

VERBATIM

From the game "25th" at the final of the KVN Premier League

Conversation between two ideal wives.

And then I think, should I go to theater courses? And then something I'm in bed somehow unconvincing.

*** Overnight in a regular pioneer camp. The counselor puts the girls to bed. The fizruk enters.

Yulia Viktorovna, where did you put the racket?

Freezer.

Well, look, I took shuttlecocks in the dining room ...

Children are smarter than us. Not a single child sold dollars in October... Dear friends, do not rush to grow up!

Perhaps this was one of the most anticipated interviews. Circumstances were such that his preparation was a little delayed. But the more long-awaited the meeting, the more expensive it is. The interview is made up of and our clarifying.
So, from the interview you will learn: where the team plans to spend the next season, how to become the team's sounder, why Yulia Akhmedova does not have a VKontakte page and much more.

Hi all! To begin with, a question, without which it will be difficult to print the interview correctly.

False: What is the official name of your team - 25th or 25th?

Kostyan91: How long have you been playing KVN?
September 11, 2008 The team is 5 years old!

Somebody: Who was your mentor besides Nina Stepanovna Petrosyants and the editors of the leagues you played in?
No one else. Only Nina Stepanovna Petrosyants and the editors of the leagues in which we played Valentin Ivanov, Arkady Dyachenko, Anatoly Shulik, Alexei Lyapichev and Mikhail Gulikov.

Pretty standard question, but asked to be asked.
Mufa: Name 5 of your favorite teams in the history of KVN.
It is hard to say. There are a lot of them.

My 5 cents: Where can I watch your early performances (I'm especially interested in Sochi where you had such a black screen wrapped with such white bandages)? Can you please tell me what year it was?
We ourselves do not know where they can be seen, but we remember that it was in 2005.

My 5 cents: At what point did you change the image of the team, costumes and makeup? How has this affected your humor?
We stopped painting our eyes black and put on shoes before the season in the First League. But the new form we have appeared only in the semi-finals. How did this affect the humor? ... Yes, no way. Everything happened very organically.

Teddy: What black and white pictures are sewn on your uniform? Team symbolism? What do they mean, because it is clearly visible - the images are copyright ...
This picture is a girl our symbol, we used to draw her on screens.

Laziness: It is very interesting what caused such a sharp change in the composition of the team after Sochi, and, by the way, it is a pity that the image of the team has changed compared to the Start league (everyone was crazy about you there!) ...
To be honest, we didn’t even feel this “image change”, everything went very smoothly from game to game. After all, in five years we ourselves have changed a lot, grown up, began to think and feel differently, and, consequently, to joke.
And the change in composition was caused by even more prosaic reasons - work, families, etc. Someone left, someone came, in general, everything is like everyone else.

Laziness: Anya Smirnova used to play for Bonchester United, or does she just look like that girl?
Anya: Yes, I used to play for Bonchester United.
And we were her fans.

Darren_Hayes: When exactly and for what reason did Ruslan Bely leave your team?
Ruslan has never been in our team. He is our very very great friend! It just so happened that last season Stasik could not go to the quarter and semi-finals and we were looking for a replacement. And Ruslanchik really helped us out in this. For which many thanks to him.

My 5 cents: How did the situation affect you when your jokes from Sochi were voiced later on TNT by Bely? And how did this situation come about?
Let's just say, it's good that this unpleasant misunderstanding is left behind.

Somebody: Why did the team fail in the First League final last year?
The reason for the failure of any team in any league can only be one unfunny performance. The other teams were just funnier, that's all.

Alexander: Where do you plan to spend next season?
We would very much like to spend the next season in some television league.

Alexander: When and how did you find your humor niche?
Thank God, we are still developing and looking.

Serge: What do you expect at HSE?
The question is in the wrong place, you need to ask the teams "Triod and Diode" and "Polygraph Poligrafych".

Igor Funaev: At the festival in Sochi, you showed a performance about graduation, then at 1/8 about a wedding, later about “Student Spring”, etc. How did it happen that you came to this kind of numbers, when everything is taken from life and nothing is practically changed?
We don’t even know how to answer such a question… To be honest, we don’t analyze our work, we just show what seems funny to us.
For example, this year we, as the VGASU team, performed at various stages of the Stud. Spring, where a lot of things amused us, so why not amuse others with this?! ...

kolezz_shadow: You make solid performances (do. and don't argue!). What is your reason for moving away from the mainstream?
We don’t know, it’s just written that way, to be honest, everything turns out very spontaneously for us. Before writing a business card, we do not set a goal - it must be solid! No, we just write, write, and then choose what we like.

Igor Funaev: How do you write your numbers and jokes?
Well, everything is as usual. The laptop and off we went: pee-read, read-pee.

People: Tell me, do you involve third-party authors to write material for the game?
When all the authors are on stage yes. In general, for the time being we managed ourselves, but as soon as such a need arises, we will definitely attract, we don’t see anything wrong with that.

Igor Funaev: There are rumors, quite from reputable sources, that representatives of the jury from the Premier League work with all the teams that achieve something in the Premier League. Who worked with you?
Witch.

Baton:Tell me, will cooperation with E. Borodenko from Neryungri continue?
We are friends with Zhenya and all his wonderful team, we hope this will be for a long time! By the way, good luck to them in the final!

Igor Funaev: How do you prepare for the game from the beginning to the very performance?
We rent an apartment in Voronezh for two weeks, where we all live and write together. Then we go to Moscow. That's all the preparation.

Igor Funaev: How many rehearsals do you have per week?
It depends on how close the game is. This season, there were very small gaps between games, they gathered every day.

Alyonka: How do other teams treat you?
I'd like to think it's good.

Kostyan91: What teams are you most friends with?
With many, but if we talk about the Premier League, we are closest to Armavir, Smolensk, Khabarovsk and Chita.

Mikhalych:How well do you know the guys from TeeD?
Not as good as we would like, but we love them and wish them good luck in the Major League, we will be rooting!

Mikhalych:What KVN teams did you root for before and now?
Before, for a lot of different. And this season everyone who was rooting for reached the final.

gusmanoid:How do you feel about other women's teams?
We do not divide teams into men's and women's.

Kostyan91: What advice would you give to a beginner KVN?)
Always believe that everything will work out.

Ex: What advice would you give to aspiring women's teams based on past games?
In general, always believe that everything will work out.

My 5 cents:When will you have your website?
While the question is open. We just do not have a person who could deal with it.
By the way, we don't have a sounder either. So, if there is a person who has all the necessary skills and is ready to help us free of charge, respond! 25aya(av-av)inbox.ru

Stepan Mamontov:Question to Natalia Chebotareva. Will you add me as a friend in contact?
Natalya Chebotareva: Yes.

False:Domestic question - what kind of music do you prefer? (all or individually).
We are omnivores.

Micha: Who do you look up to and what are you going to do in your "adult" life?
So far, all our thoughts are only about KVN.

But do you see yourself in any post-KVN projects, Comedy Club, for example, or Made in Woman?
Oh, didn't even think about it. Because it becomes very scary, then KVN will end and what's next ...

Igor Funaev: Are you all builders by profession or not?
Yes. Some to a greater extent, some to a lesser extent. Someone is an architect, someone is a designer, but the builders are all, except for the red-haired Anya - she is an economist.

Igor Funaev: What are you doing now or is there no time for work?
Natasha is a designer, Anya and Stas are designers, red-haired Anya is an administrator, Yulia is a methodologist.

people, someone else:Who is married? Does your blond beast with curls have a boyfriend?
No one is married, all the beasts are absolutely free, except for Anya the redhead.

Ex: Did you get the challenge prize "Cassandra 2008" for the phrase about the war in the homework of the semi-finals?
Well, who would have thought that this would happen ...

Serge: Is it true that Julia in life is the same as Kolchin on stage? :)
Yeah! :)

Teddy:Why does Yulia Akhmedova not have a VKontakte page?
Julia: Well, it’s just that I’m… not an advanced and not a user,… something like that…

Tiger: Julia, I really like you, let's go on a date?
Julia: Yes.

PaWy (ex CB):Julia, did you like the guy who sat behind you in Sochi and said which girls on stage are beautiful and which are not?
Julia: Yes.

dima: And this guy of yours, he makes such an image of a homosexual for the stage ...
Stas (worried): What?! Do I have an image of a homosexual?!
Julia: Stasik has the image of a young man who looks like a homosexual, with which he is constantly trying to fight.
Stas: Thank God….

Somebody: What football team does Stas support????
Stas: Los Angeles Galaxy.

False: Who do you think will become HSE champion this year?
Funny KVN team.

Busya:In one of your early videos Rusak Evgeniy was seen (former captain of the KVN teams “Shattered” and “Tyrva”, Minsk). Are you longtime friends or a hired writer? What would you wish Evgeny?
We are friends. And we wish Evgeny family well-being!

kolezz_shadow: Repeatedly (beginning with Sochi) in your performance you pulled some two bastards onto the stage. In the normal state, they have not yet been seen in the performance.
tell me, are they always tipsy or are they brought to the desired condition only before the performance? Do you take them with you or are they local, Moscow ones?
This bastard, he is also a demobilized person, is always the same person Roma. A guy who, in life, does not drink at all, but brilliantly plays drunkards and, moreover, writes very funny jokes!

Zenith: In the final, you showed a number about the arrival of an American schoolboy. I understand that you disapprove of the hype about the United States in the media. And I understand that you approve of what the US and Georgia have done in South Ossetia. I'm wrong? And would you like to apologize to the Russian national football team for the number in the quarterfinals for the number where the children are ashamed of our football players? I know I'm asking stupid questions.
We have already apologized for football, the rest is just as nonsense as the statement that someone from the jury necessarily works with all teams.

Zenith: Do you think Guzman is your audience.
We believe that Yuliy Solomonovich is a very authoritative and competent member of the jury.

sterlihg: who is the frontman?
Dmitry Kozhoma.

person who will be banned soon:You get some money from performances. And when you tour you will receive. And, in general, the teams have some profit from the games. If not, where do you get money for round-trip tickets and props.
Our only permanent sponsor is the Voronezh State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering. Starting from the league "Start" he supports us. This season, the governor of the Voronezh region and the mayor of Voronezh also began to help us. For which a big thank you to all of them.
And as for our earnings, KVN gives us much more than money.

Fun-at:Tell me, do you work with other teams?
No.

Are there any technologies that can teach how to play a warm-up?
Friends, if you have them, please write to us about them!

And how do you feel about the popular belief that KVN will die soon?
Julia: Well, for example, my grandmother calls me at least once a year to tell me that tomorrow is the end of the world. How can one relate to this? ... With irony.

Have you ever thought that the jury can be bought?
Well, this is some kind of nonsense! For what? It’s one thing for you to buy a certificate from the Housing Office there in order to get a passport in two weeks. And in KVN for what? We just like to play, well, honestly!

Thank you very much for the interview. We wish you good luck next season!

The result of the final of the Premier League KVN, which was shown on Channel One last Sunday, evoked emotions in Voronezh fans of KVN similar to the feelings of fans during the game of our football players at Euro 2008.

Yes, we fell a little short, but we showed that we can wipe our noses to many. The Voronezh KVN team "25th" in the final of the Premier League lost only 0.2 points to the winners and came in second place. They have not yet secured a place in the Premier League, and the fate of the 25th will be decided after the Sochi festival in January, when Alexander Maslyakov will dictate the coveted list of teams that have received a place in the tower. However, now the chances are greater than ever.

"Girls from the 25th"
The 25th team is remarkable not only for the fact that it reached the final of the Premier League from the very first season, barely having time to get there. Firstly, it is almost all female (only one representative of the stronger sex plays in the main team), and secondly, it is the smallest, consisting of only five people!

The final. Shows at MIIT. 25th

We were fans of KVN from the very first year, - says team captain Yulia Akhmedova. - Then we had a men's team of the construction university, and the guys condescendingly allowed us to come to meetings: draw a screen or drive for pencils. And since the KVN students of the university from time immemorial gathered in auditorium No. 25, we were nicknamed “girls from the 25th”.

Then the number of the audience and migrated to the name of the team, but this did not happen immediately.

Gradually, we got used to it, began to write jokes, - Yulia recalls. - However, young people stubbornly refused to take us to the team. We rebelled and once tried to play on our own, with four girls, in the student league - well, absolutely green ones participated there! But on the other hand, Nina Stepanovna Petrosyants was at the game, who noticed us, praised us and took patronage over us.

Nina Petrosyants is rightfully considered the mother of the Voronezh KVN. She is known by KVN workers far beyond the borders of Voronezh. Nina Stepanovna devoted all her life to the club cheerful and resourceful, it was she who, at the end of the 60s, made one of the legendary teams of the country out of the VISI team. And I dreamed of seeing a repeat of success ...

She supported us in the decision to create our own team, - the girls recall. - So we became “25th”, four girls (two later changed) and a boy Stasik Neretin, who even left the national team: “I want to play with you!” Nina Stepanovna constantly supported us, called us, worried why we were failing the sessions ... In general, she was like a second mother. Therefore, when she died in 2004, we even thought about leaving KVN. But they shamed us: they say, Nina Stepanovna put so much effort into you, and you! Now we dedicate every victory to her.

And the girls' victories went one after another: they confidently moved from the student league to the Start league, then to the First League, then to the Premier League. It is interesting, by the way, that after their departure, the VGASU men's team fell apart ...

We thought that after the very first game we would fly out of the Premier League, - the girls admit, - but we reached the final! By the way, it is not easy for women's teams in the KVN environment. KVNshchikov has a women's team - this means a bad team. We heard such comments more than once, but tried not to pay attention.

If you want to perform - fork out
However, the girls and Stas had no time to worry about idle conversations: the teams that began to be shown on TV have a lot of headaches, especially in the financial part.

Now, to make a decent performance (plus travel and accommodation), you need at least 200 thousand, - says Yulia. - Well, the native university helps, the administration of the city, the region. Although, if you show fiction, you can save.

For example, we had to break a bottle on a young man's head. A bottle of sugar (to make it easy to beat) costs 1,500 rubles. And you need to break it five times: once for yourself, the second - for the editor, the third - on the run in front of Alexander Vasilyevich, the fourth - at the dress rehearsal and the fifth - at the game. In general, we thought about it and decided to replace the bottle with a foam cake, which we smeared with shaving foam instead of cream.

For personal life, as the girls say, there is no time at all.

Well, what novels, when we are all entirely in KVN. they say. - Those girls who got married left the team. These are two things that are incompatible... But for the time being, we do not intend to leave KVN. Let's become champions of the major league and win the summer cup (it is awarded to the winner of the game between the champion of the "tower" this year and the previous one), then think about it!
