The path to fame consists of small steps and concrete actions. It is very important for a young person to have a role model. Andrei Gulnev in all his endeavors was equal to his elder brother.
Starting conditions
Children's ideas about the surrounding reality are changing very quickly. Almost every boy dreams of becoming a military or police officer, pilot or sailor. The experiences of fast-moving life make their own adjustments to these projects. Andrei Gennadievich Gulnev was born on June 22, 1982 in an ordinary Soviet family. The elder brother Dmitry was already growing up in the house. Parents lived in the famous town of Lodeynoye Pole, Leningrad Region. Father worked on the railway. Mother worked as a teacher of literature at a local school.
The future actor of theater and cinema from an early age was distinguished by observation, a good memory and a cheerful disposition. At school, Andrei studied well, although there were not enough stars from the sky. Willingly went in for sports. But he did not participate in amateur performances. Meanwhile, the older brother attended classes at the Theater Studio and at home animatedly shared his impressions of what was happening on the stage. The child listened with delight and asked to be recorded in the studio too. Such a moment came and Gulnev Jr. played his first role in the New Year's performance. Andrei went on stage in a suit of a white bunny.
Professional activity
When it came time to choose a profession, Gulnev had no doubts. He firmly decided to get a specialized education at a theater institute. After graduating from school in 1999, full of confidence and strength, Andrei went to study in Moscow. However, he was not accepted at any university. Returning to his hometown, Gulnev successfully passed a creative competition at the local Institute of Theater Arts. At the opening screenings, he had to portray a ballerina and a cockroach. The selection committee remained completely satisfied with what they saw.
In 2003, Gulnev received a diploma and entered the service at the St. Petersburg Theater "Saturday". The walls of this temple of Melpomene brought together actors and directors, with new ideas and projects. Andrei, without the slightest effort, fit into the creative team. After a short period of time, they began to trust him in the main roles in both classical and avant-garde performances. The acting career was quite favorable for Gulnev. He is regularly invited to the cinema. As a student, he appeared on the screen in the films "War" and "Agency" Golden Bullet ".
