Biography

Ali Gurbanov was born on June 20, 1898, in Tbilisi.

In 1915, he played the role of Rustam Bey in the play "If Not That One, Then This One". After this event, he was invited not only to drama performances, but also to operas, operettas and contests as both an artist and a tar player.

In 1917, the "Ittihad" Drama Society was established in Tbilisi, and in the same year Ali Gurbanov was invited to join the troupe. He performed in "Unfortunate Young Man" (Old Peasant) and "Pari Jadu" (Niyaz) with the "Ittihad" troupe.
