The Miss Merkel novels by David Safir describe Angela Merkel's pastime in retirement in a delightfully quirky way. The bestselling series has already been made into a film - with Katharina Thalbach taking on the title role.
At the Prinzregententheater, she now reads the best scenes from the first "Miss Merkel" volume: The Chancellor has been retired for six weeks and has moved to the Uckermark with her husband (and pug!). However, she finds it difficult to adjust to the quiet country life. But when Baron Philip von Baugenwitz is found poisoned in a castle dungeon that has been locked from the inside, Angela is reawakened. Supported by her loving husband and gentle bodyguard Mike, she embarks on a dangerous search for the murderer.
Katharina Thalbach brings this story to life in a haunting, insanely funny way and with her unmistakable Berlin voice. No one else can do it like her.
