Fritz Scheuermann - Der Herr Karl
Many viewers are familiar with Fritz Scheuermann: whether on stage or in TV series like "Dahoam is Dahoam" or "Beischläfer," he brings colorful characters to life with depth and soul. Directed by Marlene Beck, he portrays the character of HERR KARL, a legendary figure created by Helmut Qualtinger, embodying a quintessential Viennese rogue. Scheuermann's interpretation of HERR KARL is not merely a grumpy old man of a bygone era; instead, it presents a carefully modernized version of a corporate suit, suggesting that this KARL represents the timeless archetype of the bourgeoisie, akin to a contemporary reflection. The character is introduced by Josef Mittermayer, who, in the role of a prop master, builds a bridge from the past to the present, resonating with the complexities of our dynamic times.
