Live and act
Lipschütz began his stage career at the age of 18 at the Konstanz City Theater. In the season 1896/97 he worked at the Stadttheater Stralsund, 1898/99 at the Centralhallen-Theater in Hamburg. At the turn of the century, in the 1899/1900 season, Lipschütz followed a call to Stettin. From 1900 to 1902 he was a member of the Zurich City Theater ensemble . Hans Lipschütz then stayed in Switzerland and became co-director and senior stage director at the Stadt- und Aktientheater in Sankt Gallen. He then returned to Germany and joined the German-American Theater in Berlin. From 1907 to 1912 he was committed to the Neue Schauspielhaus, interrupted by a season at the Theater an der Spree and another as an actor and director at the Residenz Theater in Cologne. In 1912 he moved to the theater on Nollendorfplatz in the Reich capital and stayed there for two seasons. Lipschütz spent almost all of the First World War as a director and actor at the Mellini Theater in Hanover. In between (1915/16) he made a detour to the Magdeburg Central Theater.
At the beginning of the Weimar Republic , Hans Lipschütz was brought to the Neue Luisentheater in Königsberg, East Prussia, first as a director, later also as a senior stage director and actor. Until 1923 he then worked as an actor and artistic director of the Walhalla Theater in Berlin. During this time, Lipschütz often appeared in front of silent film cameras, but without making a big impression. After working as an actor at the theater in the Klosterstrasse (Berlin), Lipschütz changed more and more into managerial and administrative positions in the theater world. From 1927 to 1929 he was director and senior director at the Theater des Westens , from 1929 to 1933 co-director and director at the Metropol-Theater of the brothers Alfred and Fritz Rotter. At the same time, between 1929 and 1932, Lipschütz also directed the Centraltheater in Dresden.
In the early years of the sound film, Hans Lipschütz returned to the camera after a long absence. After the small part of a bailiff in the film No Day Without You , which went hand in hand with the takeover of power by the National Socialists, the Jew Lüpschütz / Lipschütz was completely locked out of further artistic activities. He joined the Kulturbund Deutscher Juden Berlin and performed in small pieces or revues like Die Bettenstudenten: Such a theater! (1935), Please get in! (1937), The Pojaz (1937) and The Extemporale (1938). Lipschütz then worked on the theater of the Kulturbund in such plays as Arm wie eine Kirchenmaus (1938), The Winter's Tale (1939) and, most recently, Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew (1940). After the dissolution of the Kulturbund by the National Socialists (1941), Lipschütz, who remained in the Reich capital, was completely isolated. He died there in early July 1942 under unknown circumstances.
