from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ilo von Jankó (born May 24, 1920 in Liberec ; † April 30, 2001 in Wedel ) was a German actor and director of Hungarian descent.

Life

Ilo von Jankó was born in Liberec, now the Czech Republic, as a Hungarian citizen and took on German citizenship while working at the Mannheim National Theater . At the age of 11 he moved with his family to Berlin, where he attended the theater school of the German theater in later years . After engagements as an actor in Wuppertal and Darmstadt, von Jankó finally switched to directing and staged at many German theaters, for example in Berlin at the tribune , at the Hebbel Theater and at the Volksbühne , at the Stuttgart State Theater , and between 1952 and 1959 at the Hamburg Thalia Theater , at the Fritz Rémond Theater in Frankfurt or at the Nationaltheater Mannheim, of which he was acting director for ten years and where he made a name for himself as an arranger of plays by August von Kotzebue and Johann Friedrich von Cronegk . In the era of Wolfgang Gruner , von Jankó also directed the Berlin porcupines and wrote texts for the cabaret group.

In 1987, the then director Walter Ruppel brought him to the Ohnsorg Theater , where von Jankó worked until immediately before his death and was responsible for numerous productions, some of which were also recorded on television, including for Dat Schörengericht , the Low German Version of the Kleist play Der zerbrochne Krug , and the Low German adaptation of Rainer Werner Fassbinder's play Bremer Freiheit , which was shown at the Große Bleichen under the title Froo Geesche Gottfried . Jankó's last work at the Ohnsorg Theater was the world premiere of his play Dat Familienfest, based on a drama by JF von Cronegks. In 2000 he was awarded the Ohnsorg Merit Medal.

Ilo von Jankó, who in addition to writing and staging, also painted, drew and wrote caricatures, was also active as a television director from 1960 to the mid-1980s, staging a television version of Harold Pinter's play The caretaker with Heinz Reincke , Michael Hinz and Ulli Kinalzik . Furthermore, von Jankó directed two radio play productions by the SFB in 1962 .

Ilo von Jankó was married four times, namely to the dancer Margareta Wenzel, with whom he had a daughter, to the actress Rosemarie Gerstenberg , to the dancer Doris von Jankó, with whom he had two children, and most recently to the dramaturge and director Regine -Mirjam von Jankó, with whom he lived for 24 years. Von Jankó died after a short illness while directing at the Ohnsorg Theater for the play Dat Familienfest .
