Alexander Merz

At the age of 5, my first career aspiration was to be a ringmaster. I think it was already inside of me. After I saw "Grease" in Düsseldorf, it was all over me. That's when I knew what I wanted to be.

For me, the most important thing is that you can always try and learn new things and thus grow as an artist. "Stop learning means to die" once said a teacher to me.

When I was suddenly playing shows as Blue Man in New York at the Astor Theater. That was awesome. That was in 2011. After that I worked for the "Blue Man Group" in Boston for 15 months. That was a very intense and instructive time for me, as a person and also as an artist.

That it will continue to go to the theater ;-) And maybe not only to the big theaters and to the well-known plays. In the meantime, Germany has so much more to offer when it comes to musicals.

I'm stretching out my feelers in the direction of the director and I also teach here and there. I also hope to be able to expand on that with improvisation. I love improvisational theater. It's all made up. No book, no text, nothing to learn beforehand. Everything comes from the audience and is then created in the moment with the actors. It's a lot of fun and super fun to watch.
