The real name of the popular resident is Nikolai Nikeshin. He is Georgian, however, lives in St. Petersburg almost his whole life. The future Zurab Matua was born in Sukhumi in 1980, November 15.
On the road to humor
According to the mother’s stories, the birth of the baby was not marked by crying, but by the performance of an incomprehensible melody. The family after the birth of the baby moved to St. Petersburg. There, a boy from seven years old went to school.
Studying did not appeal. A diligent student became a fan of the Octopus series. The boy's dream was to imitate Commissioner Katani. However, the desire to go to law enforcement as we grew older became weaker.
After graduation, the graduate decided to get an education at the Graduate School of Management. He chose the direction of municipal and state administration. The student has long been thinking of starting his own business.
After a couple of years, he embarked on a dream. The guy looked quite real at the first steps. He perfectly understood that he would not instantly become a tycoon. The accumulated funds were enough to open a small company selling ice cream.
Having tested the role of a supplier of sweet delicacies, Zurab realized that this craft did not interest him at all, despite the fact that the business was rapidly going uphill. Matua was convinced that it was not a matter of choosing a sphere. No other business option seemed interesting to him.
Leaving the matter, Zurab invited his friends to organize a team of cheerful and resourceful in the famous television club. The idea was supported. Soon, the execution of jokes and miniatures created by Zurab began. After a short time, Matua left the team.
The realization of talent
He performed in several compositions. Among them are “Controversial”, “The Joint KVN Team of St. Petersburg”, the Ministry of Emergencies, and TO. The experience gained made it possible to participate in the Baltika team, get into the Minsk Euroleague, and become the finalist of the Governor's Cup. The miniatures of Matua turned out to be interesting. Zurab also joined the vocalist. He understood that he had the talent, and therefore went to the contest "People's Artist" in 2003. The young man passed all the qualifying rounds successfully. However, being among the top hundred singers, the project left. The jury advised him to take humor seriously.
The reason was that Matua forgot the lyrics of the chorus. He decided instead of the original words to put the text of one of the creations for KVN. The jury considered the joke successful and the guy was passed on. Repeating the situation no longer seemed a brilliant idea. The guy was advised to joke, not to bully. The humorous refrain did not match the format of the competition. Zurab was not completely upset and decided to follow the recommendations.
Several buddies were professionally involved in introductions. Zurab consulted with them. It was decided to go to work in one of the clubs in St. Petersburg. The audience was entertained by jokes. Soon, the company became desirable in other institutions. A successful career has begun in the world of humorous show business.
A little time passed, and Matua turned into one of the most recognizable in St. Petersburg. The guy dreamed of more. He did not refuse the offer to participate in creating the finale of the popular comedy show from the St. Petersburg branch. The talented young people drew attention to the executive director of the Comedy Club Moscow Style.
He decided to engage the company in the popular Comedy Club. Soon the team turned into "Cjvedy Petersburg". The performances were so successful, the guys were invited to the main metropolitan squad. Recognition and Glory Success has been phenomenal. The first performances began solo. Zurab coped with the new role perfectly.
However, he was more remembered for the most famous tandem with Sorokin and Averin. This is the composition of the showmen most liked by the audience. The guys worked well, so they decided to continue to work together. As a result, one of the brightest teams of the rating project appeared.
