Leopold Beringer

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Leopold Beringer ( 1831 in Pest - February 1915 in Linz ) was an Austrian theater actor and singer ( baritone ).

Life

Beringer, an actor's child, first took the stage at the age of 14 as a member of a traveling drama company. From 1846 to 1846 he led this comedian wandering life and traveled through half of Hungary and Galicia. After almost a year of involuntary calm imposed on him by the political movement of 1848, he began his theatrical activity again, which was now mainly limited to Silesia, Upper and Lower Austria and Moravia. Most recently he worked in Ischl and Salzburg until he joined the Association of the Linzer Bundestheater in 1868, to which he belonged almost continuously from that time until 1902. He only worked in Graz, at the theater in der Josefstadt and Fürst and in Teplitz during the Hirsch direction in Linz. In 1901, on the occasion of his 70th birthday, the artist was granted tax-free citizenship of the city of Linz. There he can still be proven until shortly before the outbreak of the First World War.

His further life is unknown.

His brother Karl Beringer was also an actor.
