Daniil Charms, born in Petersburg in 1905, is considered a master of absurd miniatures and a brilliant humorist. The critic Helmut Schödel once called his characters "marionettes of nonsense" and "a feast for ingenious actors" and in Wolfram Koch, director Jakob Fedler has found precisely one of these ingenious theater actors. However, Wolfram Koch is best known to television audiences as chief detective Paul Brix in Frankfurt's Tatort.
But in the monologue Zack. Eine Sinfonie. Wolfram Koch appears this time as an entertainer, a clown and a player with a horn who simply has to play, dance and make music. Koch's main aim is to entertain his audience and make them laugh, but Daniil Charms' prose, poems, scenes and dialogs are always texts with a double bottom. Behind the humor lies the desperation and misery of the characters. Alongside a Pushkin joke is the horror of a totalitarian state.
