Therese Braunecker-Schäfer

There she attracted attention by her lively character, and already after one year of activity, she was chosen by director Johann Hoffmann for the State Opera in Prague.

She appeared on June 3 in Das Versprechen hinterm Herd[2] and in Family Fliedermüller and struck with her strongly parodistic coarseness, her almost trivial, but fresh and powerful playing.

She caused a special sensation as a "false Pepita",[3] because she danced the Madrilena with such perfect grace that she aroused enthusiastic rejoicing with her performances.

There she worked as one of the most outstanding and most popular members beside Wenzel Scholz, Johann Nestroy and Karl Treumann, with whom she also changed to the Quaitheater.

[citation needed] For the last time before her illness, she appeared before her numerous admirers at the Theater auf der Wieden on November 18, 1886.
