Roland Jankowsky "Wenn Overbeck kommt..." - Die Krimilesung — Artland Arena, Quakenbrück
Description was written before the event

{"title": "Roland Jankowsky \"Wenn Overbeck kommt...\" - Crime Reading", "description": "For nearly 30 years, Roland Jankowsky has played the quirky Commissioner Overbeck in the ZDF crime series Wilsberg - an investigator who has a knack for putting his foot in it, often acts without restraint, and operates on the fringes of the law. This fondness for bending the rules earned him the nickname \"Dirty Harry of Münster\". In 2018, viewers voted him \"Germany's Coolest TV Commissioner\", and in 2016, visitors to the Eifelkulturtage honoured him and his reading with the \"Goldene Berta\" award.\n\nBeyond his acting work - on TV and on stage - Jankowsky is also active as a singer and audiobook narrator. His comedic talent runs through all of these roles.\n\nAt this crime reading, Jankowsky as Overbeck switches sides: the short stories he reads put killers centre stage, exploring the pitfalls of their trade. Not every bullet that hits actually hits the right person.", "summary": "Roland Jankowsky, best known as Commissioner Overbeck from the Wilsberg series, reads darkly comic crime stories - this time told from the killers' point of view."},
