Daniel Sträßer (born 18 July 1987)[1] is a German actor and member of the ensemble of the Burgtheater in Vienna.

Life

[edit]

Sträßer already had the chance to be on stage as a student at a Waldorf school. From 2007 he studied acting at the Mozarteum University in Salzburg and graduated in the academic year 2011/2012. During his training he was engaged by Klang 21 for the Pocket Opera Festival Salzburg 2009 in a music theater production (Mahlzeit by Hans-Peter Jahn) directed by Thierry Bruehl. In a university production in 2011, he was discovered by the chief dramaturge of the Burgtheater at the Hamburg Young Talent Competition and made his successful debut there as Romeo.[2]

As part of his studies, he worked in Müller's "Medeamaterial" (director: René Braun), in Trolle's "Hermes in der Stadt" (director: Simon Paul Schneider), in Hage's "De Niros Game" and in Crimp's "Attacks on Anne" (director: Katrin Plötner) and also in 2011 at the Salzburg Festival in A Midsummer Night's Dream. Sträßer, who names his university mentors Uwe Berend, the former head of drama, and the then guest lecturer (now professor there) Kai Ohrem, has worked on roles from Goethe to Martin Krimp.

In the 2013–14 season he worked in the contemporary witness production The Last Witnesses by Doron Rabinovici and Matthias Hartmann at the Burgtheater in Vienna; the production referred to the Kristallnacht of 1938, was highly appreciated by audiences and the press and was invited to the Berlin Theatertreffen 2014.[3]

In March 2019 it was announced that Sträßer, together with Vladimir Burlakov, would embody the new chief inspectors Adam Schürk and Leo Bäumer in the crime serie Tatort set in Saarland for Saarländischer Rundfunk.[4]
