Klaus Pohl, playwright, actor and director writes about private emotions. His successful play 'Karate Billy Comes Home' is about German reunification and shows how Billy discovers who betrayed him to the secret police. His bold plays are realistic and dramatise major public disasters using journalistic research. He is a very lively, energetic, humorous man. Some of his plays with large casts have been considered sensationalist. He has lived in Rome and plans to live in New York in the autumn, as it is a challenging city where it is easier to be a foreigner.
