Oskar Hugelmann

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Oskar Hugelmann (* 29. August 1891 in Graz , Austria-Hungary ; † 13. July 1967 in Vienna ) was an Austrian actor of stage and film and theater director .

Live and act

Hugelmann began his career as a guest artist in Germany who was already based in Berlin before the outbreak of the First World War. At that time, obligations led him a. a. to Karlsruhe. When he moved to the Vienna Renaissance stage in 1920, he also appeared in front of the camera for the first time. Nevertheless, until shortly after the end of the Second World War , Hugelmann largely stayed away from film and concentrated entirely on his stage work.

In 1922 Oskar Hugelmann worked at the Theater an der Wien , two years later he went back to the Renaissance stage. In 1925 he returned to his hometown Graz, where he was first employed as a stage director. From 1932 to 1934 Oskar Hugelmann worked as an actor as well as a director at the Stadttheater in St. Gallen, from the 1935 season he was a member of the Munich Volkstheater for six years, where he was not only an actor, but also, most recently, senior director. From 1941 through 1943 Oskar Hugenthal worked at the Landestheater in Innsbruck, in the last season of the Third Reich, 1943/44, the Graz native was brought to the Viennese Bürgerertheater as an actor and director.

After the end of the war, Oskar Hugelmann can hardly be proven to have had a permanent commitment; for example, one-off contracts led him to the Vienna Volkstheater in 1955. Instead, he now appeared frequently and regularly in front of film cameras, although his reel size rarely exceeded the batch format. After working on TV in the early 1960s, it can no longer be detected here either. Immediately before his death, Oskar Hugelmann was given a permanent stage engagement until 1967, this time taking him to the Vienna Volksoper.
