Life

In 1960 she returned to Germany as a lecturer specializing in respiratory therapy. There she took speaking lessons from an actor from the Landestheater Coburg in order to be able to teach better in large halls. The speaking lessons became acting lessons and she played in two productions at the Coburg student theater.

In 1962 Maddalena Kerrh began her acting training at the Zerbonischule in Munich. 1964 worked in the USA for a year and got to know the off-theater scene in New York. In 1965 she played several roles in the modern theater in Munich. In 1968 she married Kelle Riedl and opened the Off-Off-Theater with him at Ludwigstrasse 6. In the same year their daughter, the later actress Kellina Klein, was born.

In 1971 she founded the “Children and Youth Stage Off-Off”, for which she also wrote the plays over the next ten years. Two of the plays ( Dodo and Pepi the key children and The Tie Horse ) were recorded on television ( SWR and BR ) and came out as books.

In 1972 the theater moved to Potsdamerstraße. In addition to the “Off-Off Theater Club”, Maddalena Kerrh opened the “Medau-G. and T.-Institut”, where children from 3 years and adults were taught gymnastics, jazz dance and yoga. The theater workshop courses for children were created in 1973 in a combination of theater and education. In addition to regular theater performances, a series of jour fixe events began here , which gave artists, writers and musicians an opportunity to present their ideas and make contacts. In 1975 Kelle Riedl, who had been the artistic director of the theater club until then, left the off-off.

  1. It was she ... who - each afternoon - tried out children's theater on small stages: the 'Maximilian Pfeiferling', in her staging, was a southern German premiere; it was followed by a number of relaxed and funny children's plays written by her, all of them successful.
