Life

Eyben, the daughter of a piano manufacturer, made the decision to become an actress, since she was always praised for the sound of her speech organ and her good declamation, especially since she showed a great preference for the stage profession. She took lessons from Paul Zademack and Rosa Spitzeder and immediately took the stage as "Gretchen" at the Hoftheater in Wiesbaden for the first time. Both in this role and as " Jane Eyre " in "The Orphan of Lowood" she received encouraging applause and was engaged.

She then came to Freiburg, from there to Nuremberg (1889) (inaugural role "Stubborn"), Cologne (1890-1892) (inaugural role "Hortensie" in "Probepfeil"), Riga (1893-1896, inaugural role "Pompadour") and performed After she had not accepted a permanent engagement for some time, she joined the Association of the Schwerin Court Theater in 1900, where she made her debut as "Anna-Liese". The artist was a member of this ensemble - after the First World War as the Mecklenburg State or State Theater - for the following decades until her retirement. Over the years, Louise Eyben grew into the field of chaperones and hero mothers. She stayed in Schwerin until her death.

Louise Eyben was married to the actor Julius Eyben .
