TV actor Roland Jankowsky with quirky-criminal short stories

In the popular ZDF crime series Wilsberg, he has played the somewhat quirky Commissioner Overbeck for over 25 years. In this role, he often finds himself in awkward situations, acting impulsively and on the fringes of legality, which has earned him the nickname "Dirty Harry of Münster." Roland Jankowsky possesses many talents. Whether as an actor on TV or in theater, a singer or an audiobook narrator – his comedic potential is unmistakably his trademark.

In 2018, viewers voted him the "Coolest TV Commissioner in Germany 2018."

In 2016, the audience of the Eifelkulturtage voted Jankowsky and his reading as the winner of the "Golden Berta."

For the reading, Jankowsky, alias Commissioner Overbeck, switches sides. The short stories read pertain to killers and the pitfalls that this profession must face. Not every bullet that hits, hits the right target.

The Cologne actor is an excellent reader, and his reading skills promise top-notch entertainment.

The event lasts about 2 hours, including a 20-minute break with drink service.
