Lisa Florentine Schmalz is active as a singer, musical theater artist, and curator. Her different activities combine her interest in and search for a form of contemporary and feminine artistic creativity in which content, aesthetics, and working conditions are rethought.

During and after her vocal studies at the Hamburg University of Music and Theater and the Zurich University of the Arts, she performed as a soloist on stages such as the Hamburg State Opera, Theater Kiel, Theater Bremen, and Junge Deutsche Oper Berlin as well as with major orchestras on international stages and festivals such as the Heidelberger Frühling Festival.

As a performer in contemporary musical theater, she has also been seen on stages such as the Thalia Theater, Kampnagel, and Lichthof Theater in Hamburg. Spurred on by her growing need to create and design new structures, Lisa Florentine Schmalz has been increasingly initiating and curating projects. A central part of this is her work in the feminist musical theater collective Staatsoper24, which she founded together with Pauline Jacob. In 2023/24, the co-production Curlew Love Songs took Staatsoper24 and team to the Theater Aachen. This was her first project as co-director.

Lisa Florentine Schmalz has been a scholarship holder of the Studienstiftung des deutschen Volkes, the Claussen-Simon-Stiftung, the Musikfonds e.V., and the Akademie Musiktheater heute.
