His stage roles there in the 2009/2010 season included the role of Kenneth Lawrence in the crime piece Cocktail for a corpse based on the film Cocktail for a corpse by Alfred Hitchcock ; Hitchcock's film was originally based on the play Party for a Corpse by Patrick Hamilton . In the stage version, Bürkner played alongside Petra Blossey and Claus Wilcke , the murdered David and the best friend of the murdered student David, the ex-boyfriend of the role Janet.
