Konstantin Alexandrovich Varlamov (Russian: Константин Александрович Варламов, 23 May 1848 – 15 August 1915) was a Russian stage actor associated with the Alexandrinsky Theatre.
Varlamov, who regularly staged popular 'kapustniks' (amateur comedy performances) in his own home, was considered the heir to Yakov Shumsky and Vasily Zhivokini, and was a cult figure in his native city, where special trademark Dyadya Kostya cigarettes were produced at one time in his honour.[2]
In 1896 he was honored with the medal for Meritorious Artist of the Imperial Theaters. Konstantin Varlamov died in Petrograd, Imperial Russia, on 15 August 1915 and is interred in Novodevichy Cemetery.
