Career

Philipp Hochmair is the son of a doctor and an engineer , his younger brother also became a doctor . At first he was interested in painting and graphics until he discovered his dramatic talent.

From 1993 to 1997, Hochmair studied acting at the Max Reinhardt Seminar in Vienna with Klaus Maria Brandauer and at the Conservatoire national supérieur d'art dramatique in Paris. Engagements took him to the Schauspielhaus Hamburg, the State Theater Hanover, the Volksbühne Berlin and the Schauspielhaus Zürich. From 2003 to 2009 he was a member of the ensemble at the Vienna Burgtheater and was included in the gallery of honor. From 2009 to 2014 he was a member of the Hamburg Thalia Theater ensemble .

Hochmair worked several times with the directors Nicolas Stemann and Frederike Heller. Immediately after graduating, he joined the Stemann group , an acting troupe led by the director Stemann, and played central roles in many productions. As early as 1997, the Werther production was established as part of this collaboration ! after Johann Wolfgang von Goethe . In this one-person piece , Hochmair illustrates the sufferings of young Werther in a contemporary form. The play has been a great success since 1997, it has been shown on many German-speaking and international stages and is part of the repertoire of some, such as the Burgtheater in Vienna or the Thalia Theater in Hamburg. The CD and the book, which were created parallel to the performance, have also found their way into German and literature classes. Based on the same principle as Werther! Hochmair developed the Kafka texts The Trial and America as well as Büchner's Lenz into radio plays and staged readings.

Although primarily connected to the theater, Hochmair was seen in various film and television roles from the start of his career. In 2000 he embodied Golo Mann in Heinrich Breloer's Die Manns - a novel of the century . In 2013, Hochmair appeared in the feature film The Shine of the Day by the Italian-Austrian directing duo Tizza Covi and Rainer Frimmel , which was awarded the main prizes of the Max Ophüls Preis film festival and the Grazer Diagonale . Hochmair plays himself in it - a very busy actor who is confronted with an unknown uncle and the fate of an asylum seeker.

In August 2018, he stepped in at short notice for the sick Tobias Moretti in the title role for five performances in Jedermann at the Salzburg Festival .
