Kurt Pscherer
Kurt Pscherer (born June 3, 1915 in Beneschau , † April 13, 2000 in Munich ) was an Austrian actor, director and theater manager.
Live and act
Before Pscherer came to the State Theater on Gärtnerplatz as State Director in 1963 , he was senior director at the Wiesbaden Theater. His appointment to Munich "came as a surprise ... without a guest production or rumors about the ministerial decision being preceded". He made a significant contribution to the sustainable profiling of the house as Munich's Volksoper:
- "Right from the start, Kurt Pscherer ... emphasized above all the versatility as the main argument and instrument for the Gärtnerplatztheater to grow into 'Munich's Komischer Oper'": "'The profile and character of the house lie in its diversity, today musical, tomorrow great opera, The day after tomorrow classic operetta ', were his words to the regular audience in 1966 “.
In 1969 the state director founded the in-house Gärtnerplatz ballet . This foundation was necessary “in order to be able to optimally guarantee the demanding ballet numbers in the newly established operas by Purcell, Rameau and Handel”. Pscherer, who was State Director of the Gärtnerplatz Theater until 1983, also directed several operetta films for ZDF.
Shortly before the start of the premiere of the musical "The King and Me", Pscherer died of a heart attack in the Deutsches Theater in Munich.
