Career
Hansi Niese made her debut on stage for the first time in 1886 in a bar in Speising, near Vienna.[2] At the age of 18 in 1891, she appeared in the South Moravian town of Znojmo at the local theater.[2] In her youth, Niese worked alongside actress Berta Türk.[4] Her success story began in 1893 at the Vienna Raimund Theater, where she appeared in the series for six years as a soubrette. In 1899, she moved to the theater an der Josefstadt. Soon after, she married Josef Jarno, the director of this theater.[3]
Not only at the various stages of Vienna, but also on tour in Berlin Niese has starred in numerous plays by including Ludwig Anzengruber, Gerhart Hauptmann, Ferenc Molnár, Johann Nestroy, Ferdinand Raimund and Arthur Schnitzler. She also appeared in several farces and operettas (around 1907 as "Försterchristl" in the eponymous operetta with her brother Georg Jarno) and often as a partner of Alexander Girardi.[5]
In the thirties, Niese starred in several films, including 1931 in "An Affair" and 1932 in "Hussars love."
