Life

After getting his Abitur (school qualification) and completing an apprenticeship as a typesetter, Ebert began theatre studies at the German Theatre Institute in Weimar in 1951. From 1955 to 1961, he was theatre editor at the weekly Sonntag. Afterwards, he worked as a senior assistant at the Hochschule für Musik "Hanns Eisler" (Hanns Eisler College of Music) until 1963. Following this, he was deputy director at the Staatliche Schauspielschule Berlin (Berlin State Drama School) until 1981. With its transformation into the Ernst Busch Academy of Dramatic Arts in 1981,[1] Ebert became associate professor there and was also first prorector there from 1981 to 1988. He taught theory and history of theatre until 1992.

In 1977, Ebert was awarded a doctorate in physics from the Humboldt University of Berlin. His dissertation was titled "Improvisation as an element of the basic methodological training of actors".
