Seriesly Bar Talk with Dimitrij Schaad: Create Your Own Damn Story 

Dimitrij Schaad doesn’t seem particularly interested in staying in his lane. Actor, writer, director – he moves between stage and screen, performing and creating, and increasingly puts his own stories at the center. With SERIESLY BERLIN opener JOSSI and the Netflix series CRAP HAPPENS (KACKEN AN DER HAVEL), Schaad is behind two very different projects that carry his creative signature. Where do his stories come from, how much does performing influence the way he writes, and what happens when an actor starts calling more of the shots?No career retrospective, no masterclass. This is about where Schaad is creatively right now – the ideas, risks and ambitions driving his work, what he wants to do differently, and where he wants to go next. Because when you can act, write and direct, the real question might be: what do you choose to do with all that freedom?
