criticism

The Tagesspiegel wrote in 2008:

“In the last 20 years, the man has simply done everything: played at the Theater des Westens, founded various local theaters with her permanent colleague Katja Nottke, ran the Hansa Theater, played in movies and TV series, spoke dubbing and in a lot of music shows at the Stand on stage. (...) Not wrong either: The showman still looks pretty good. "
