Johanne Henriette Rosine Hendel-Schütz, née Schüler, (1772–1849) was a German actress, mimoplastic performer, dancer and singer.
After a period in Breslau (1779–85), she attended the French school in Berlin where she was instructed by Johann Jakob Engel, the author of the widely acclaimed introduction to acting Ideen zu einer Mimik.
[1] In 1788, when just 16, she married the opera singer Friedrich Eunicke with whom she toured to destinations including Mainz, Bonn, Amsterdam and Frankfurt am Main.
In Frankfurt, she met the painter Johann Georg Pforr who introduced her to the "attitudes" of Lady Hamilton who in 1787 had developed a new form of entertainment, combining classical poses with modern allure in loose fitting garments in what became known as mimoplastic art.
Her fourth marriage was with the historian Friedrich Karl Julius Schütz who accompanied her on her theatrical tours, on occasion also performing on the stage.
