Gerald Fiedler
Gerald Fiedler was born in Berlin in 1959 and graduated from the Ernst Busch Academy of Dramatic Arts in Berlin in 1987.
In his first engagement at the Kleist Theater in Frankfurt / Oder, he worked under the direction of Andreas Kriegenburg, among others. In 1990, he moved to the Deutsches Nationaltheater Weimar, where he performed under the direction of Leander Haußmann, among others. From 1992 to 1993, he played Stogov in Gorky's "The False Coin" (directed by Alexander Lang) and Beaumarchais in Goethe's "Clavigo" (directed by L. Haußmann) at the Schillertheater Berlin. After the closure of the Schillertheater, he began directing his own productions in Rudolstadt (Thuringia) and Stralsund and made a guest appearance in Weimar as Stelzfuß in "The Black Rider" by Robert Wilson. From 1997 to 2001, he was a permanent member of the ensemble at the Freie Kammerspiele Magdeburg, where he worked as a director (including "Pterodactylos" by Nicky Silver and "Stella" by Goethe) and actor (including Valmont in "Quartett" by Heiner Müller and Gloucester in "King Lear" by Shakespeare).
This was followed by a period as a freelance director (including "Andorra" by Max Frisch in Potsdam, "Richard III" in Baden-Baden and "The Lost Honor of Katharina Blum" in Dessau) before he became a permanent member of the acting ensemble at the Anhaltisches Theater Dessau in 2005. There he played, among many other roles, Salieri from "Amadeus" by Peter Shaffer (director: Charlie Risse), Captain Wiesler from "The Lives of Others" (director: David Ortmann), Torvald Helmer from "Nora" by Henrik Ibsen (director: André Bücker), Zettel from Shakespeare's "A Midsummer Night's Dream" (director: Malte Kreutzfeldt) and Schlomo Herzl from "Mein Kampf" by George Tabori (director: Dominique Horwitz).
Since the 2017/18 season, Gerald Fiedler has been a permanent member of the acting ensemble at the Staatstheater Augsburg, where he has played roles including the old "Peer Gynt" by Ibsen (director: A. Bücker), Leonato in "Much Ado About Nothing" by Shakespeare (director: M. Kreutzfeldt), Apollo in "Oresteia" by Aeschylus (director: Wojtek Klemm) and Caliban from "The Tempest" by Shakespeare (director: A. Bücker).
