German actress (born 1958)

Lioba Albus (born September 27, 1958) is a German actor and cabaret actress.

Career

Lioba Albus was born and grew up in Attendorn, Sauerland as the seventh child of her parents Heinrich and Hedwig Albus. After her Abitur at St.-Ursula-Gymnasium in 1977, she studied theater studies in Munich and attended the private acting school Zinner. During her training, she first appeared in touring theaters for children, and from 1983 she was a member of the permanent ensemble of the Dortmunder Kinder- und Jugendtheater. Before moving to Dortmund, she worked as an announcer for Bayerischer Rundfunk.

Since 1991, Lioba Albus has performed as a cabaret artist on stage, radio and television. Her main broadcaster is WDR. She has appeared in the programs Mitternachtsspitzen, Ladies Night, Blond am Freitag and 7 Tage, 7 Köpfe, among others. From 1995 to 2001, she hosted the WDR radio program Unterhaltung am Wochenende. In her home town of Attendorn, she hosts the annual Gauklerfest.

Lioba Albus has three children and lives in Dortmund. A cousin is the actor and dubbing artist Thomas Albus.

Program

The cabaret artist takes up everyday situations in a satirical way and exaggerates typical social behaviour. Her most popular topic is the relationship between men and women. She often slips into the role of the fictitious Sauerland housewife "Mia Mittelkötter", who reveals her (sometimes only superficially) simple wisdom. Some press reviews have called Lioba Albus a "volcano of words".
