from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Joseph Saxinger (* 14. January 1922 in Munich ) is a German actor of stage, film and television as well as a theater director.

Live and act

Saxinger, son of a Munich civil servant of the same name, attended elementary school and received acting lessons after the war. He then played at various smaller stages such as the Landestheater in Neuss, the Burghof stage in Dinslaken, the Theater an der Berliner Allee in Düsseldorf and the Piccolo Comedy in Wuppertal. In later years Saxinger also directed the stage (e.g. at Munich's theater on Brienner Strasse).

As early as the early 1950s, Saxinger was involved in a few movies. Working in front of the camera began to gain in importance in the late 1960s, when Saxinger was regularly hired for television films. There he was most convincing in Bavarian folk plays of the 1970s such as “ The Brandner Kaspar and the Eternal Life ” and Der Ruepp . Saxinger, who had also worked for radio, was still standing in front of the camera at the age of 87 (for an episode of the sketch show Normal is des ned ).
