Ludwig Blochberger
Ludwig Blochberger was born in East Berlin in 1982. Because of his parents’ theatre engagements, his family moved several times. He spent his childhood in Dresden and, after the fall of the Berlin Wall, in Vienna.
As a member of the Vienna Boys’ Choir, he was introduced to classical music at an early age and, during concert tours to Japan, Australia, and the United States, discovered the world. His first stage appearances soon followed; among others, he played Prince Edward III in Claus Peymann’s production of Edward II (Vienna Burgtheater, 1998), and gained early experience in film and radio. During this time, his wish to become an actor took shape.
In 1999 he returned to his native Berlin. The following year, he appeared alongside Armin Mueller-Stahl in the multi-award-winning television trilogy Die Manns. At 17 he began studying acting at the Ernst Busch Academy of Dramatic Arts. While still a student, he appeared in several television and film productions, including the Oscar-winning film The Lives of Others (2004).
The piano opera Schumann, Schubert und der Schnee (Ruhrtriennale Bochum, 2005) marked his first collaboration with director Hans Neuenfels; this was followed by The Magic Flute (Komische Oper Berlin, 2006) and the title role in Baal(Münchner Volkstheater, 2007). Further stage work from this period includes Lulu (Festspiele Reichenau, 2006), The Difficult One (Festspiele Reichenau, 2007), and the world premiere of Rolf Hochhuth’s tragicomedy Heil Hitler!(Akademie der Künste Berlin, 2007), in which he played the leading role under the direction of his father, Lutz Blochberger.
In 2013 he portrayed German Chancellor Helmut Schmidt in a docudrama and took on the role of Inspector Riwal in the crime film series Kommissar Dupin. From 2015 to 2021 he appeared in the long-running detective series Der Alte as Detective Tom Kupfer.
