Dagmar Manzel - one of the greatest actresses of our times. A woman who acts, dances and sings with her heart and soul, who is able to alter and rediscover herself again and again. As a Frankish Tatort commissar the German television has come to love her, her plays at the Deutsches Theater are sold out for months, her success continues as a singer at the Komische Oper and other houses. Since the 1980s she has been an actress for the most notable German directors and has won many important prizes.
