After the four closely-planned performances, Viola is available again and will be happy about new enquiries. Take a look at her profile and get another impression of this wonderfully versatile woman and performer. You can see and hear from her looks and her voice that she is not only a master of the stage, but also of acting in front of the camera:

VIOLA NEUMANN * Cinema release: Forest within me!

Tomorrow, on 10 April, the feature film FOREST WITHIN ME with our Viola will be released in cinemas! © U. Ruths / Cologne Cine Collective

Info:

The film premiered at the Max Ophuls Festival 2024 and was shot in Cologne and in the Weserbergland region of Lower Saxony (Emmerthal, Bodenwerder, Heinsen, Holzminden and Polle).

“Jan (23), a shy biology student, loves his animals and has filled his flat with aquariums, terrariums and cages. Alice (23), his fellow student and environmental activist, appreciates his sensitivity. When they fall in love, Jan is overwhelmed by the intense feelings, the social life and the closeness to Alice. His perception becomes distorted and he believes that he must actively combat threats. As Jan slips into a schizophrenic crisis, an intoxicating maelstrom of love and delusion begins, culminating in the decision to start a new life. To Alice’s great despair, Jan falls into a deep depression and flees into the forest.”

VIOLA NEUMANN * happy birthday!

Viola Neumann – our pearl from the Pott! We wish you the unimaginable best for your birthday! © Urban Ruths

Born in Gladbeck.
The city of the hostage drama in 1988.
She asks herself: Is this where the tendency to play unpredictable, vulnerable characters with macabre games comes from?
Fritz Haarmann, Elektra, Jericho (Children of Olympus), Yvonne, the Burgundian Princess … have adorned her repertoire to date.

Grandad founded the WAZ (Westdeutsche Allgemeine Zeitung) and saw his granddaughter become a young writer, but the ‘Blag’ (Ruhr German for child) had a mind of her own.

She played horse, dog and cat on all fours until the proud age of 12 … perhaps that explains her extreme physicality on stage? Fuelled by chips with mayo, of course.

Add all the invented stories, captured on cassette, the assembly line-like painting,https://www.newsmaenarts.com/blank-2

Hömma, that only leaves acting!

Even today, she still has to go to the little shop to get ‘Klümpkes’ (Ruhr German for sweets), for the dentist’s sake and of course to stroke her freelance heart.

She says hello to Frances McDormand, Joaquin Phoenix and Willem Dafoe! Some of her loves.
