Life

Before training to become an actress, Engelbrecht had to complete his Abitur or regular professional training - as was common in the GDR at the time. She therefore trained as a skilled worker for textile technology. Nadja Engelbrecht then enrolled in the State Drama School in East Berlin in 1980 , which was converted into the Ernst Busch Academy of Dramatic Art a year later . In 1982, after two of three years of training, Nadja Engelbrecht was de-registered for political reasons.

During her student days she got her first role in Frank Beier's film “The Stay”. Until she left for the western part of Berlin in 1984, she was employed at the Anklam Theater, under the direction of Frank Castorf.

From 1984 Nadja Engelbrecht lived in West Berlin and worked for theater and television. Since her first cinema success in the comedy " Meier " (1986), numerous television productions followed such as: "Victor Wunderbar", "Marleneken", "The Red Jackal", "Soko", "A Case for Two", "Bülowbogen Practice", "Coplan", "Brigitte Lindt - anorexic", " The little vampire - new adventure ", "Zoff and tenderness" or "Happy Birthday".

Engelbrecht could also be seen on stage, for example in the Berlin Renaissance Theater in "The Beggar Opera of John Gay", in the New Theater Hanover , at the Festival in Schwäbisch Hall, where she played the viola in Shakespeare's " Was ihr wollt ", as well as in Schauspiel Köln in "Herbstball". Nadja Engelbrecht also appeared in numerous broadcasts on the radio.

In 1998 she took a break from work and went to New Zealand with her family for three years. There she met artists from other fields and dealt intensively with ceramics . Back in Berlin, she opened her own ceramic workshop.

In 2002 she applied to the “State College for Ceramic Design and Ceramic Technology” in Höhr-Grenzhausen, in the Westerwald, where she completed her training as a ceramic designer in 2005 with the final exhibition “Exhibits 05”.
