life and career

Miller completed his Abitur at the Frankenlandschule Walldürn and then studied administrative sciences at the Kehl University of Applied Sciences . The first appearances took place in the cafeteria of the university in Kehl.

Miller celebrated the stage premiere in the Kulturbühne Biermichel in Neumühl near Kehl with the Brennzeichen D program - just before the climax . In 1994, when I won the Passau executioners' ax and the Baden-Württemberg Cabaret Prize for the program Ich Deutscher - Nix Understand, the breakthrough as a cabaret artist came. In this new stage presentation, Miller experimented in collaboration with media artist Marion Pfaus with live video material and recordings from previous performances.
In the CabaretMusikTalkTheaterImprovisationsSpielSpaßShow Zungenschlag Miller developed the typical stage figure in many small appearances together with the sponsor Axel Naumer . At this time, the first program was created, The fun is full of this character, who he embodies on stage to this day. In 2006 he was awarded the German Cabaret
Prize in the cabaret category for the program “ No reason to prompt ”.

The fictional character created by Miller shows her highly subjective view of things in the odenwald dialect. Socially relevant topics are often dealt with on the level of complacent round table speeches, in which even the use of much-tried phrases seems too laborious to reproduce without errors. Incomplete sentences that end abruptly reveal numerous intellectual breaks and create a sense of humor. “The punch line lurks behind the break” - said the jury for the German Cabaret Prize. Miller only uses a chair and a water bottle as props .

Rolf Miller has also appeared on public television since 1998; for example, he was a frequent guest in Otti's slaughterhouse on Bayerischer Rundfunk .

Miller's stage program Tatsachen premiered on October 16, 2009 in the Aschaffenburg cabaret in the Hofgarten . In 2011 he received the German Cabaret Prize of the Nuremberg Burgtheater for this . In 2013, the BR recorded the program Tatsachen , the program ran in 2 parts in January 2014. In October 2014 Miller celebrated its new solo program Everything Else is primarily a premiere in the Mainz lower house.
