Biography


Tobilevych was on 29 September 1845, at Arsenevka, a village in central Ukraine near Yelisavetgrad (now Kropyvnytskyi). He was in the family of the estate manager, Karp Tobilevich. He studied at the Bobrynetsky District School, and from 1859 he worked as a bailiff's clerk in the town of Mala Vyska and later as a clerk of the city administration. He worked in the county court in 1864.
Moved to Yelisavetgrad in 1865, he worked as the head of the district police department, participated in amateur performances by Oleksandr Tarkovsky, published literary and critical articles, and later became a member of the illegal Narodovo circle of Opanas Mykhalevych. In 1870, he married Nadia Tarkovsky, the aunt of city poet and journalist Arsenyi Tarkovskyi. As a dowry, he received the Tarkovskys' family farm, and they had seven children. Nadia died in 1881, and his daughter, Halyna, died in the following year. In 1883, he was dismissed from the post of police secretary and exiled for supplying revolutionaries with passports.
His first role in performance began in the 1880s when he played in the troupe of Marko Kropyvnytsky. He published his first story in Ukrainian, "Novobranets", in the almanac "Rada", signed under the pseudonym Hnat Kariy, in 1883.
Arrested in 1884, he was exiled to Novocherkassk, where he worked as a blacksmith and later opened a bookbinding workshop. During his exile, he wrote his first drama, Shepherd (Burglaka), as well as the plays Bondarivna, Wise Man and the Fool, Naimichka, and Talentless. In 1886, a collection of his dramas was published in Kherson, including Bondarivna, Who is guilty? and Reasonable and Fool. After he was released in 1887, he returned to Ukraine with his wife, Sofia, and settled on a farm that was named after his first wife, Nadia. Today, the farm is a historical and cultural reserve and museum.
His drama, Naymichka, was published in 1887, and Martin Borulya in Zora in 1892. In 1888, public supervision over him was removed, and he joined the troupe of his brother, Mykola Sadovskyi, and later the troupe of another brother, Panas Saksaganskyi. The virtues of his dramas are liveliness, the integrity of characters, and well-chosen language. In 1890, he joined the Society of Ukrainian Artists and wrote the comedy Hundred Thousand.
He wrote a note to the Congress of Stage Actors in Moscow that was dedicated to the persecution of the Ukrainian theatre, which Panas Saksaganskyi read from the podium of the congress. In 1899, he wrote the historical tragedy Sava Chaly, dedicated to the events of the 18th-century in Haydamak's region.
He fell ill in 1906, left the stage, and went to Berlin for treatment. After a serious illness, Tobilevych died on 15 September 1907 in Berlin. His remains were brought back to Ukraine and buried at the Nadezhda Farm.
