Ivan Krajíček

Overview

Ivan Krajíček (* May 24, 1940, Žilina - † June 5, 1997, Bratislava) was a Slovak actor, singer, comedian, director, moderator and entertainer.

At the age of five, he began playing the violin. He also devoted himself to some sports, e.g. discus throw, cycling, hockey and more. In the years 1957-1961 he graduated from the Academy of Performing Arts in Bratislava. In 1964, he began performing in the drama ensemble of the New Stage. He worked here until 1975 and later transferred to the operetta ensemble, where he became a soloist.

As a versatile artist, he devoted himself to acting, singing, moderation, cabaret and also worked as a theater and television director.

During his full-time military service, he prepared an entertainment program for which he needed a script. He joined Old Hlaváček, who was on full-time military service in Mikulov at the time, and he wrote the script for him. The collaboration grew with the theater and cabaret duo - Krajíček - Hlaváček, which was invented by Ivan Krajíček. Later, the comedic couple appeared in cabaret, radio and television. Their most famous program was the Inn under the Chestnut, where they created two farms. In 1964 he joined the New Stage [1].

He often performed as an actor and singer with Zora Kolínská, with whom they sang a few duets. As a director he directed many works, e.g. Tululum (musical comedy), Cyrano from the suburbs (musical) and many others. He worked in dubbing, in programs for children, moderated various competitions, events, entertainment programs such as. Bratislava Lyre or Vtipnější wins. He started moderating the Disco for the Elderly and Advanced, which later changed its name to May I Beg ?.

In the early 1990s, he invented and moderated a successful song competition called Repete. He also sang his songs in this competition (eg Dangerous Miss, Mom, Journey to Heaven, Kazačok, Black Eyes, Tulip, The Last Feast, Song about a Rock Flower and others), but he also sang with other singers and added his own comic scenes to individual songs. . The successful program (for example, in the first round, 16,000 correspondence cards came to the competition from the audience and at the beginning of 1993 to 180,000) moderated until February 1997, after his death he was replaced as a moderator by Zora Kolínska.
