“Triode and Diode” ... This team does not need to be introduced. Children, adults, pensioners - spectators of all ages love the team, the basis of which was the team “Triode and Diode” (we will consider its composition separately). She is known not only by KVN fans and amateurs, having a good laugh, taking a break from a hard working day, but also by connoisseurs of subtle, intellectual and intelligent humor.
Team "Triode and Diode": composition and history of creation
In the distant nineties, Maxim Kiselev was still a student. He had the opportunity to join the future KVN team “Triode and Diode” (the team was replenished with a participant who later became a captain) quite by accident: a classmate answered his request to write off the lectures with a counter offer - to speak at the dedication. Maxim, of course, agreed. And in 2000, the STEM “Triode and Diode” appeared (the composition of the team at that time was not yet complete).
Days passed, cities changed ... Already after the year 2000, champion awards began to appear, won in festivals such as "Coffee Grinder" (in Cheboksary), "Kursk Anomaly", "Noisy booth" (in Bryansk), "Eagle's Nest" (in Orel ) Soon Kazhanova Lisa joined the future champion team. Not wanting to stop in the development of their work, young enthusiasts go to the sunny city of Sochi, where they directly become participants in KVN games.
And now the guys are the Triod and Diode team (we will list the composition in conclusion) ... During the competition, our team became the leader of the Premier League in 2008; reached the final of the major league two games in a row - 2009-2010; won the Summer Cup 2013. And the guys - the vice-champions of the regional KVN league (Ryazan), took the bronze medal of the First KVN league, “Small KiVi in gold” (a music festival in the city of Jurmala). And they won a victory in the Premier League of the Cheerful and Resourceful Club in 2012.
The secret of popularity
What is the secret of success, why is the Triod and Diode team so demanded? Its composition is talented, witty and friendly guys who cannot imagine themselves without each other as much as without KVN; guys for whom the most important reward is the laughter of their audience! These are the people who carefully check every joke, every movement. Which ultimately makes their numbers folk.
Their scenes can be different: both unexpected and surprising ... They can be simple and even acutely social. This is always high-quality and, most importantly, very funny humor.
Famous Numbers
Behind the backs of the artists there is already an impressive list of numbers, miniatures and jokes that the audience loved so much. But I would like to separately mention those that are particularly successful: “Medvedev's Happy New Year”, “Marriage”, “Conductor”, “Hospital”, “Abduction of a Russian person by aliens”, “Iskander”, “Exams to the music school”, “In kindergarten”, “Staircase”, “The President comes to check the hospital”, “The bride was stolen from the wedding”, “Wedding in Smolensk”, “Light bulb”, “How Skorokhod passed exams” and others. Well, and, of course, as without the charming Gopnik Skulls and Lada! With a light hand of his companions on stage, Maxim Kiselev even became "the most educated gopnik of Russia."

Now the never-discouraging KVN team “Triode and Diode” does not change the composition (you can see the photo in the article) and never sits “idle”, but rather successfully travels with concerts not only across huge Russia, but also far abroad. They are very loved and always awaited in the USA, Israel, England, Germany, Turkey, Lithuania, the Czech Republic ...
