Martin Baucks
Martin Baucks (* 1961 in Hamm ) is a German author , director , dramaturge and actor .
Life
He studied acting and directing at the Folkwang Hochschule .
His first engagement was at the Würzburg Theater . His career took him to the Stadttheater Essen , Dresden , the Leipzig Theater, the Temesvar State Theater and the Hamburg Theater . From 1999 he worked in Berlin as a director, dramaturge and alongside Stefan Otteni as artistic director at the Kammerspiele of the German Theater Berlin . In 2008 he directed at the Theaterhaus Mitte in Berlin.
Martin Baucks is represented as a playwright both at Felix Bloch Erben Verlag in Berlin and at S. Fischer Verlag in Frankfurt am Main . He still lives today as a freelance artist in the capital, where he is occasionally employed as a television actor and continues to work as a writer.
His plays "Crooked Dogs", "Hasenfratz" (Felix Bloch Erben Verlag) and "Umbra" (Fischer Verlag) are among his central literary works. "Crooked Dogs" was premiered in 1998 at the State Theater in Hanover and described in the newspaper Die Welt as a "stroke of luck". It received an award from the Hanover Author Days.
His play Hasenfratz , which premiered at the Kammerspiele of the Deutsches Theater in Berlin in 2000, was critical of Die Welt , but praised the acting performance: “The blood that splatters into the rows of the audience is a very special elderberry juice. But such a bang works in a production that aims for a poetic realism with the appearances of cheerleaders and rehearsed Nirvana songs, artificial and strange. ”The Westfälische Rundschau , however, noted that the piece“ digs deeper into the wounded soul of the Spectators, the more the tormenting is only hinted at in a scenic way ”. Günther Grack went on to explain this in the Tagesspiegel : “Eruptions of violence, in between moments of dull speechlessness: 90 minutes that grow into a nightmare in the workshop of the“ new ”Kammerspiele, a rondo of horrors. (...) You leave the theater as if stunned. "
Since 2004 he plays in the ZDF - telenovelas regularly in every season finale, the role of the pastor, including 2009 Ways to Happiness .
