Adolf von Wyhl

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Adolf Julius Brosch von Wyhl , after 1945: Dolf von Wyhl (born February 5, 1904 in Wiesbaden-Biebrich , German Empire , † after 1967) was a German stage and film actor.

Live and act

Adolf Brosch von Wyhl was discovered for acting as a child. He made his stage debut in the farce The Robbery of the Sabine Women and in the 1919 film in a production by Edy Dengel, a teenage boy from Biebrich who, like Wyhl, was only slightly older . Wyhl later left the Wiesbaden area and began to play theater in the German provinces. Mainly on the move with touring stages, von Wyhl also received one or the other permanent engagement until 1945, such as the city theaters of Potsdam, Braunau am Inn and Aschaffenburg. At the latter stage station he was also allowed to stage plays during the Second World War.

Even in the early post-war period von Wyhl, who now abbreviated to his first name Adolf, who was contaminated by Hitler, appeared as a theater director (e.g. in Wiesbaden), but remained primarily an actor. Adolf Brosch von Wyhl only returned to film after a quarter of a century of absence and in the 1950s took on minor roles in three DEFA productions. After two German television productions, shortly after 1967, when von Wyhl was engaged as an artistic advisor for the Berlin “Komödie”, his track is lost.
