As part of Susanne Eggert’s acting class, I worked on the imitation/parody of the character Ludmilla created by comedian Anke Engelke. Defying my skeptical attitude towards stereotyped parodies, I have developed the character, Olga.
Olga is a wannabe actress. Even as a little girl, she dreamed of being on the big stage and being admired by everyone. Now she wants to make her dream to come true and tries her luck at the casting for the role as a Christmas Angel in the supermarket.
In spite of her clichéd appearance, her character is not only funny but also authentic and realistic.
PS: This video has no deep or philosophical content and is project still in working process.
