Lilly Forgách is a full blast thespian educated at Munich's Zerboni Drama School. She feels at home on stage as well as on set. One of her first performances in an feature film was alongside Jan Josef Liefers and Marie Bäumer in the psycho-drama called Sieben Monde (dir.: Peter Fratzscher). She played her very first roles in the TV movies Zeit der Fische and Hinterlassenschaften which were both directed by Steffi Kammermeier. She wasn't the only one who repeatedly hired Lilly Forgách to perform in important roles. Immogen Kimmel, Hajo Gies, Martin Enlen, and Andi Niessner did likewise. Her ability to adapt to all genres allows her to intensely portray the most versatile characters from middle-class women to historic and glamorous heroines. In addition to her film and TV work Lilly Forgách has managed to pursue her stage career. She played at Munich's Residenztheater, Prinzregententheater, and Volkstheater and performed at municipal theaters in Regensburg, Nuremberg, and Klagenfurt, Austria. In Cagliari / Sardinia she even played the role of Hamlet in Italian! Lilly Forgách is a regular ensemble member at Munich's Metropol Theater, where she took on leading roles in plays like Portia Ocoughlan, Das Ballhaus, Clockwork Orange, Nach der Hochzeit, and in musical plays like Die Furien (all directed by Jochen Schölch).
