Robert of Balajthy
Robert von Balajthy (born October 30, 1855 in Vienna ; † August 10, 1924 there ) was an Austrian actor.
Balajthy was very early on the stage, played for a long time in provincial theaters, had a guest appearance in Vienna, and thus came to the Raimundtheater and from 1910 to 1912 to the Burgtheater . He always had terrible stage fright, which he could not overcome, and gave up his job. He lost his fortune and committed suicide during the years of inflation .
His grave is in the urn grove of the Simmering fire hall (Department 1, Ring 1, Group 1, Number 1) in Vienna.
