The popular Graz actress Gerti Pall died on Friday in a nursing home in her home town at the age of 92.

Gerti Pall made her debut at the Graz Schauspielhaus in 1951 as Lieschen in Raimund's "The Alpine King and the Misanthrope"; after engagements in Stuttgart, Frankfurt am Main and Hanover, she returned in 1972 and remained loyal to the theater until 2015. Her roles ranged across the repertoire, from the Duchess of Olivarez in Schiller's "Don Carlos" to Avdotja Nazarovna in "Ivanov" by Chekhov, Teiresias in "Oedipus" and Gertrude in Shakespeare's "Hamlet". Her last major success came in 2009 together with Helmuth Lohner in "Die Glut" by Sándor Márai.

Much honored
Born in 1932, Pall was made an honorary citizen of her home city of Graz in 2016. In recognition of her wide artistic range, she also received the Golden Medal of Honor of the Province of Styria in 2002. She also held the honorary title of Kammerschauspielerin.

Her distinctive voice, which was also heard in numerous radio plays, and her resolute demeanor were her trademarks. Incidentally, she retained her love of making big appearances until the end, when she became the first Styrian woman to be vaccinated against coronavirus in the presence of countless media representatives.
