Marie Cathrine Preisler Explained
| Marie Cathrine Preisler |
| Nationality: | Danish |
| Occupation: | Stage actress |
| Years Active: | 1778-1797 |
Marie Cathrine Preisler née Devegge (1761–1797), was a Danish stage actress.
She was active at the Royal Danish Theatre in 1778-97, and a member of the Det Dramatiske Selskab in 1777-79. She is counted as among the elite of her profession, enjoyed great popularity and was famed for her heroine Soubrette roles.
She married Joachim Daniel Preisler in 1779. This attracted great attention at the time because he was a member of the upper class and moreover joined her profession after their marriage, highly unusual in an age when the stage professions were of low social status. Her spouse became an appreciated actor in lover roles, but the couple made a scandal with their spendthrift: in 1792, her husband fled the country, and four years later, she was placed under guardianship in order to sort out her financial affairs.
