Ingrid Korpitsch is an aerial artist, director, and choreographer with a broad and versatile artistic background.
She began her artistic career with classical ballet training before studying musical theatre at the Vienna Conservatory. She gained her first professional stage experience in productions including Chicago, Nunsense, and The Merry Widow. Alongside her theatrical training, she taught herself the art of acrobatics, laying the foundation for a career as a multifaceted performer.
For many years, Ingrid toured internationally as part of an acclaimed acrobatic duo, with performances at the Roncalli Varieté, in Reno, Nevada (USA), and aboard cruise ships around the world.

In recent years, Ingrid has appeared on some of Germany’s most renowned variety stages as an acrobat, singer, and musician, including the GOP Varieté-Theater, Krystallpalast Leipzig and Varieté Et Cetera. Beyond performing, she has built a strong reputation as a choreographer. Since 2025, she has also been the director of her own production, YOUniverse, which is touring all GOP Varieté theatres throughout Germany.
