Life

Born in East Prussia , he came to the theater in 1919 after his military service in World War I and initially performed at the city theater of his native Königsberg. He then worked in the eastern German provinces (e.g. at the city theater of Ratibor in Upper Silesia ) before coming to Berlin in the early 1930s . There he was no longer to receive a permanent engagement from the stage, but since the end of 1931 he found a wealth of tasks as a small to very small actor in film .

Passarge played chauffeurs and miners buddies, postmen and policemen, sailors and machinists, horse dealers and soldiers, workers and salesmen. In the middle of the Second World War he returned to the theater and in the 1942/43 season he joined Philipp Mößner's guest company .

At the end of the war, Passarge's trail is lost, possibly he fell in the last days of the war.
