When the country was invaded by the Nazis, Tatyana Vasilyevna, along with her sister and mother, was forced to move from occupied Leningrad to the provincial town of Danilov (Yaroslavl Region). Part of the actress’s childhood passed here. When the siege of the cultural center of Russia was lifted, Doronina returned to her hometown and began to study at one of the local schools. The family of the actress was not easy: a communal apartment and a constant shortage of food products did not add optimism. At school, Tatyana Vasilievna studied mediocrely: humanitarian disciplines were easy for her, but difficulties arose in the exact sciences. But even at a young age she could boast that she knew by heart the content of the poem of Konstantin Simonov “The Son of the Gunner”. After some time, the girl began to engage in clubs in singing, artistic reading, sections in rhythmic gymnastics and shooting sports.
First Attempt
In the eighth grade, Tatyana Vasilievna goes to the capital and successfully passes exams at the Moscow Art Theater School.

Inspired by such success, Tatyana Vasilievna, whose biography, no doubt, contains a lot of interesting things, could not wait for the moment when she graduated from school.

BDT
For a while, Tatyana Vasilievna and Oleg Valerianovich worked at the Theater. Lenin Komsomol living in a local dressing room.
At the end of the 50s, fortune smiled at the actors: the young actress met the director of the Bolshoi Drama Theater Georgy Tovstonogov, who offers her cooperation.

In the mid-60s, Tatyana Vasilievna, whose autographed photo was wanted by all admirers of her talent without exception, left the Bolshoi Drama Theater and went to Moscow with her new spouse. In the capital, she gets a job at the Moscow Art Theater. Doronin will serve in this theater until 1971. By that time, a conflict would break out in the Moscow Art Theater troupe.

Irreconcilable antagonists will be the famous lyceum Oleg Efremov and the equally famous Tatyana Doronina. As a result, the actress will go to work in the Theater. Mayakovsky. Here she meets the director Andrei Goncharov, and their creative symbiosis will be very fruitful.
In 1983, Efremov will again call Tatyana Vasilyevna to the Moscow Art Theater, and she will agree.
