Lissi Nebuschka

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Marie Luise 'Lissi' Nebuschka (born November 11, 1888 in Dresden , † July 22, 1966 in East Berlin ) was a German actress and singer with stage and silent films .

Life

The daughter of the opera singer Franz Nebuschka received singing training in her hometown of Dresden from 1908 to 1910 . She had her first engagement in 1910 at the court theater in Gera . In the 1911/1912 season , Lissi Nebuschka worked at the Wilhelmshaven City Theater . There she was discovered by the businessman, film distributor and producer Christoph Mülleneisen senior and brought to the film. Nebuschka, who was able to celebrate some stage successes with parodies by Asta Nielsen at that time , was then purposefully built up as the "German Nielsen". This went so far that they tried to visually match Asta in their films - mostly dramas and melodramas, less often comedies.

Soon this principle of copying no longer worked, and before the First World War , Lissi Nebuschka disappeared from the field of view of moviegoers just as quickly as she had appeared there two years earlier. She was also only sporadically active in the theater; Engagements led her to provincial theaters in Tilsit , Stettin , Stargard and Troppau . After the Second World War, she was married to the actor Carl Schaum (* 1889) and had a child born in 1924 and lived in Dresden and East Berlin.
