ROLAND JANKOWSKY - "Es wird Tote geben - Overbeck reloaded" Die Lesung
For years, Roland Jankowsky has been known from various TV formats. If time allows, he also finds himself back on stage and in the studio. Theater, chansons, readings, and audio plays – Jankowsky is versatile.
Not least his sometimes quirky Inspector Overbeck, who elevated the ZDF crime series "Wilsberg" to cult status and enjoys a large and still growing fan base - despite the many faux pas he makes.
In his reading, however, he carefully avoids them.
Equipped with years of experience as a radio speaker and narrator, Roland Jankowsky presents selected "criminal" short stories. His "alter ego" also seems present in this genre, sitting "uninvited" at the reading table and commenting on the performance with original body language, occasional cross-references, and bons mots. A subtle, very entertaining game between reader and actor develops, making Jankowsky's readings a winkingly fun experience for the audience.
The Cologne-based actor is an excellent reader, and his reading promises the very best entertainment.
-Roland Jankowsky is the viewers' choice for 'Coolest TV Inspector in Germany 2018' "...Jankowsky provided the final touch. The voice clear and distinct, as if made for an audiobook. Local color through accents, a few subtle gestures that underline the humor - Jankowsky offers one of the most atmospheric evenings of the Gießen Crime Festival." (Gießener Allgemeine)"
"...Even during brutal scenes, there is hearty laughter... The dialects he imitates transport you to the regions of the stories of the various authors. He doesn’t just read them, but performs them on stage, truly embodying the characters." (Trierischer Volksfreund)
