Fabian Kruger
Fabian Krüger (born on August 14, 1971 in Kassel ) is a German theater and film actor who grew up in Switzerland and has been a member of the Vienna Burgtheater ensemble since 2009 .
life and work
Krüger studied at the Zurich Drama Academy . “If he hadn't become an actor, a Catholic priest would have been his second choice. Because of the joy of preaching, ”wrote the Zürcher Tagblatt in 2013 about him.
He had his first engagements with the independent theater group 400asa and at the Maxim-Gorki-Theater in Berlin in the directorship of Volker Hesse . Matthias Hartmann hired him at the Schauspielhaus Bochum and took him to the Zurich Schauspielhaus in 2005 , where he “became a crowd favorite with eccentric, often comical characters.” He played there a. a. the Mercutio in David Bösch's Romeo and Juliet production, the Sosias in Hartmann's interpretation of Kleist's Amphitryon , the soldiers in Max Frisch's drama Andorra and the title role in his Biedermann and the Arsonists , and most recently the Marinelli in Lessing's Emilia Galotti . “He calls himself 'incompatible', which probably means that he never likes to settle in comfortable situations. He finds it interesting where he 'doesn't belong', he doesn't like to feel 'its limitation': 'I don't want to draw from the pot that I just poured out.' - The language shifts symptomatically between pictorial and abstract. "
When Hartmann moved to Vienna's Burgtheater in 2009, Krüger became a member of the ensemble there. Here Krüger initially took on roles in Hartmann's casino productions of War and Peace and The Trojan Horse , in contemporary pieces by Roland Schimmelpfennig ( The Comet ) and Thomas Vinterberg ( The Commune ), and in Frank Castorf's version of Hans Henny Jahnn's The Coronation of Richard III . and as Edgar in Peter Stein's monumental King Lear .
