Formation artist
Glib Suryaga is a Ukrainian theater and film actor. His acting vocation manifested itself in his childhood. The guy always felt a strong passion for creativity: he was interested in all cultural events, tried to enroll in various clubs, helped organize concerts and programs, set up lighting equipment, was a presenter, etc. His debut on stage took place while playing in the KVN, in high school. Glib was not immediately accepted into the team. The artist jokes that he is not always accepted somewhere right away. At first, he came and watched the rehearsal process. And later he personally immersed himself in the art industry.
Glib Suryaga grew up in Mariupol, so he often attended performances at the Mariupol Drama Theater. The guy was strongly influenced by the special atmosphere of the institution, which even in the lobby gave visitors a feeling of a real holiday and a touch of high art. For Gleb, the magic of the theater began with fairy tales. In particular, the play by Robert Louis Stevenson “Treasure Island” left a vivid impression. The work remains one of the artist’s most beloved works today. Gleb did not single out idols for himself. He says that he is not inclined to create idols, but is simply used to paying attention to the play of different performers, some of whom he may like or not. The artist is sure that each path is unique and individual. And it is not worth trying to repeat someone else’s success, to imitate the style of a famous star.
Creative path
Lesya’s debut at the Theater took place while studying on Reznikovich’s course at the Kyiv National University of Theater, Film and Television named after. Karpenko-Karya. Gleb was a second-year student, and the play was called “Games in the Backyard”. Since then, the creative path of the young actor began. Fans appeared, and gradually the recognition of a wide audience came. Currently, Gleb Suryaga continues to cooperate with the directors of the Lesya Ukrainka Theater, being part of an outstanding team. After all, the theater’s works have repeatedly become laureates of prestigious awards of iconic art festivals.
On February 24, 2022, Gleb Suryaga clearly decided to abandon the use of Russian in all performances. The actor stated that if the theater did not change the language and did not abandon the label “Russian drama”, then the cooperation would be completed. At that time, no one knew what would happen next – whether the full-scale war would last long. However, Suryaga made this decision for himself immediately. A few days after the invasion began, as Gleb says, a group of actors on Telegram asked what to do with the “Russian drama” addition. The majority of the team unanimously voted to immediately abandon this name.
