Live and act
Inge Schmidt was already on stage playing fairy tales at the age of four before she took private acting lessons as a young adult in her hometown of Hamburg. She then made her adult debut in 1927 at the Thalia Theater in the Hanseatic City and at the Altona City Theater, to which she would remain loyal for the next eight years. In 1935 she went to Berlin for the film Künstlerliebe, which was set in Munich, where she played the leading role with Toni, a young opera ballet dancer. Despite this hopeful screen debut, Inge Schmidt did not continue her film activity, but soon accepted an offer that would lead her to the Munich State Theater from 1936 to 1945.
Inge Schmidt's early theater roles include Gretchen in Faust , Rosalinde in As You Like It , Viola in What You Want , Käthchen von Heilbronn , Hermia in A Midsummer Night's Dream , Pützchen in Des Teufels General and Lola in Come again , little Sheba .
After the war, Inge Schmidt returned to Hamburg, performed at the local Kammerspiele and at the “Theater im Zimmer” and went on guest tours that took her to Leipzig, The Hague, Amsterdam and Bern. At this time she had already participated in a number of radio plays and as a director of plays - mainly fairy tales for the little ones and comedies for the grown-ups, but also van Druten's Das Lied der Taube , Frys Ein Phönix zuviel and Inges Come again, little Sheba - started to stage.
With the beginning of the television age in the Federal Republic of Germany, Inge Schmidt appeared again in front of the camera after 18 years of absence. Over the next three decades she took part in a plethora of productions. She was also seen with a grandma role at the side of Heidi Kabel and Willy Millowitsch in the Hei-Wi-Tip-Top series . After 1986, Inge Schmidt's track is lost. At a young age, the artist was briefly married to the sculptor Hans Wagner and then to the journalist Hermann Harster.
