Sophie Charlotte Ackermann

Sophie Charlotte Ackermann (née Bierreichel) (10 May 1714 – 14 October 1792) was a German actress from Berlin.

The troupe visited Danzig, Königsberg, Breslau, Warsaw, Leipzig, Halle, then Frankfurt am Main and with the beginning of the Seven Years' War via Strasbourg to Switzerland.

After the peace treaty, they returned via Strasbourg, Frankfurt, Mainz, Braunschweig, Hanover to Hamburg which became the domicile of the troupe.

In 1767 the troupe was sold to a consortium of private owners, called the Hamburgische Entreprise, whose main backer was Abel Seyler, who employed Gotthold Ephraim Lessing as its dramaturge.

The Entreprise was home to famous founders of German histrionics such as Friedrich Ludwig Schröder and Konrad Ekhof.
