Maria Eis (born February 22, 1896 in Prague , Austria-Hungary , † December 18, 1954 in Vienna ) was an Austrian chamber actress and film actress .

Life

In the period from 1918 to 1923 she performed in Vienna at the Neue Wiener Bühne , the Renaissancebühne and the Kammerspiele . Maria Eis then went to Hamburg and played there until 1932 at the Thalia Theater and the Deutsches Schauspielhaus . After returning to Vienna, her impressive career began as a character actress and tragedy at the Burgtheater , of which she was a member of the ensemble until her death. Her appearances as Elizabeth I , Lady Macbeth , Sappho , Iphigenie and Medea deserve special mention.

From 1935 Maria Eis was able to succeed as a film actress and appeared in a good two dozen feature films.

After Austria's annexation in 1938, she was only able to play with a special permit because she was married to a “ half-Jew ”. Eis hid the prompter from the Burgtheater Maximilian Blumenthal in her apartment for a while, but on March 5, 1941 he was deported to an extermination camp, as was his wife Anna in October 1942 to Maly Trostinec .

She was married three times and gave birth to their son Heinrich ( Heiki ) in 1940 . Between the ages of 5 and 11, he played numerous theater roles as well as a leading role in the film God's Angels Are Everywhere (1947), alongside Attila Hörbiger .

In 1960, in memory of Maria Eis, the traffic area in front of the former Karl Michael Ziehrer House, Maria-Eis-Gasse in the 3rd district of Vienna, was named after her, in which the delivery group of the Post and Telegraph Administration for Vienna III was housed. This street was included in Rochusplatz in 2016 .

Her honorary grave is located in the Vienna Central Cemetery (Group 33 A, Row 4, Number 12).
