Oleg Dobrovan was born on April 20, 1975. He graduated from Mikhail Shchepkin Higher Theatre School (course of V.A. Safronov) and joined the Maly Theatre’s company in 1997.
Actor’s excellent physique and stage charm allow him to be equally convincing in a variety of roles and genres, from comedy to drama. However, Oleg is best at portraying rotten people, romantic scoundrels. These are Koprov, Dulchin, and especially Konstantin Vanyushin, played by him, a role that found favour in the eyes of his colleagues, spectators and theatre community.

Simple guys», «Bodyguard-3», «Notes of the forwarder of the Secret Chancellery», «The main version», «Zemsky Doctor. Life anew», «Life and destiny», «Practice», «Method», etc.
