Live and act

Hans Jungbauer had been on the theater stage since the early 1920s and directed at the Neues Schauspielhaus in Königsberg towards the end of the same decade. He was then seen at the Frankfurt Schauspielhaus , before he went to Vienna for the first time in 1933 to take on an engagement at the German Volkstheater. Back in Germany, Jungbauer performed at the Leipziger Schauspielhaus until the Second World War. During the war he worked at the Kammerspiele of the German Theater, at the Deutsches Theater and in the 1943/44 season at Vienna's Theater in der Josefstadt. After the war, Jungbauer stayed in Vienna and was appointed senior director of the local Renaissance theater.

At the beginning of the 1950s he worked as a director at the municipal theaters of Wuppertal and from 1953 to 1956 as a director and actor at the municipal theaters of Frankfurt under the direction of Lothar Müthel . There he was seen, among other things, as Malvolio in “ What you want ”, as President in “ Cabal and Love ” and as Duke in “ Two Measures ”. As a director, Müthel had him direct Ostrowski's “Der Wald” in 1954, where Jungbauer also took on a role with Genadius. In 1957 Hans Jungbauer moved back to Berlin, where he worked as an actor at the Theater am Kurfürstendamm.

Shortly before his death, Hans Jungbauer found himself again in Vienna, where he was shooting another film. His sporadic work in front of the camera is limited to a handful of films in which he impersonated characters - above all public officials, notables and doctors.
