Biography
The future showman was born in the Ukrainian city of Kirovograd, where he graduated from an ordinary high school and entered the local institute of management in order to receive the education of a journalist. After some time, this educational institution ceased its activity, and Anton was already transferred to the Pedagogical University, to the Faculty of Philology. He successfully combined his studies with work as a television and radio host. It was then that he became interested in the famous KVN game and performed together with the popular Gulf Stream team. After graduating from university, he moved to Kiev and got a job on the Inter TV channel.

In Kiev, Anton joined the Kiev team of the club of cheerful and resourceful Yabloko, with whom he broke into Moscow, to Alexander Vasilyevich Maslyakov himself. By the way, Andrei Molochny also played in Yabloko. Against the backdrop of successful performances, in 2006, Anton Lirnik with his like-minded people created the Ukrainian version of Comedy Club. In parallel with this, a duet of Anton Lirnik and Andrei Molochny is created, which the guys decided to call the "Chekhov Duet". Having gained the experience of speaking, the team made its debut on the TNT channel, where it showed the well-known number “Interview for the position of a janitor”.
As it turned out, Anton is also a great musician, since at the same time he created the music group "Lirnik Band", which released an ironic and funny video clip about the Lada car. And to date, it has almost half a million views on Youtube.
