from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Frieda Lehndorff , occasionally misspelled Frieda Lehndorf , born Frieda Schöttle or Schoettle (born May 19, 1876 in Kaiserslautern ; † after 1931), was a German stage and film actress .

Live and act

Frieda Schoettle attended the secondary school for girls in Darmstadt before she received her artistic training there from the court actress Agnes Eppert . Frieda Schoettle entered the stage at the age of five in her native Kaiserslautern, when she played the orphan of Lowood in the play of the same name (in the English original: Jane Eyre ). At the age of 16, the artist began as a professional interpreter at the Darmstadt Sauertheater, and one year later she received her first permanent engagement in the role of the naive in Bad Kreuznach. Afterwards Frieda Lehndorff was engaged in this role at theaters in Detmold, Gera, Essen and Bonn until she was 32. At 32 she made the transition to the character subject and that of the elderly, starting with the move to the Deutsches Theater in Hanover. She then worked for several years at the Stuttgart Court Theater.

In 1918 Frieda Lehndorff came to the Reich capital to fulfill an obligation at Berlin's Meinhard Bernauer Theaters. From then on, the artist often appeared in front of the camera right into the end of the silent film era, where she mostly embodied maternal women and simple representatives of the people. She remained loyal to the stage, in the 1925/26 season Lehndorff could be seen on the Hellmer stages. When she ended her silent film activities in 1927, Lehndorff returned to Stuttgart and was a member of the Württemberg State Theater until 1931. Thereafter, no permanent employment at a house can be determined.
