"LORIOT - The very open letter"
From 1957 to 1961, the column "Der ganz offene Brief" (The very frank letter) appeared in the magazine QUICK. In his letters, the author, a certain Loriot, paints a portrait of the young Federal Republic of Germany and takes the first step from illustrator to author. Loriot's terse, always trenchant announcements as a television presenter are already laid out here. As are the sketches with which he would fascinate a mass audience a decade later. Of course, there are also plenty of drawings to round things off.
Johann von Bülow, known from films such as The Adlon, The Minister and The Mirror Affair, will read Loriot's recently rediscovered letters, published as a book, for the first time on stage.
