Overview

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Otto Schenk (born June 12, 1930 in Vienna) is an Austrian actor, and theater and opera director. Schenk was born to Catholic parents. His father, a lawyer, had Jewish roots and therefore lost his job after the Anschluss in 1938. Schenk studied acting at the Max Reinhardt Seminar, and started his acting career at the Theater in der Josefstadt and the Wiener Volkstheater, and as a comedian at Vienna's Simpl cabaret theater. His directing career began in 1953 at small Viennese venues, later leading him to renowned stages like the Burgtheater, the Munich Kammerspiele or the Salzburg Festival, staging plays by William Shakespeare, Arthur Schnitzler, A-don von Horvath, Anton Chekhov.
