Life

Rüthling was born in Wittstock on the Dosse in 1758. In 1781 he was hired by Karl Theophil Döbbelin in Berlin. He mainly played small supporting roles. After the founding of the Berlin Royal National Theater in 1786/1787, it was taken over and is said to have retired on March 24th. In August von Kotzebue's play Bayard , Rüthling played a stable master. In the comedy He mingles in everything by Johann Friedrich Jünger , he played the role of a waiter. In Friedrich Schiller's Die Piccolomini , he took on the role of a servant to Count Terzky. Under the direction of August Wilhelm Iffland , he increasingly took on the role of secretary or dramaturge. In his contribution to a theater handbook, he wrote the alphabetical index of the performing members of the Königl. National Theater, in which he provides a brief biography of the actors.

His son Johann Friedrich Ferdinand Rüthling (1793–1849) was also an actor. He was considered a student of August Wilhelm Iffland .
