“Edmund Stoiber”: Explaining the World
to Oral Implantologists
The much-parodied former prime minister of Bavaria, Edmund Stoiber, as impersonated by political satirist Wolfgang Krebs,
will be talking to the people, as impersonated by the attendees of the BDIZ EDI Symposium. Krebs, born in 1966, performed
on stage for the first time when he was only five years old. During his school years, he was active in student and local theatre
groups. Since 1988 Krebs has been performing, on and off, as a speaker in various radio plays.
Having attended comprehensive acting workshops in
Berlin and in London, where he obtained his actor’s
licence, Wolfgang Krebs has been present on Bavarian
TV, impersonating the Bavarian prime minister
ostensibly commenting aspects of a popular satirical
show – and not only him, but also other well-known
figures in regional politics, including the current
holder of the Bavarian prime minister office, Horst
Seehofer.
Wolfgang Krebs’ satirical stage performances have
also been highly acclaimed, as have his impersonations
of a mail carrier-cum-voice imitator claiming
to present greetings from Chancellor Angela Merkel
and other well-known people in German public life.
He gained the attention of a broader public when
he went so far as to impersonate Edmund Stoiber in
mock interviews to the German national press in the
context of the 2005 coalition talks.
He is also the author of a children’s book entitled
Star journeys: seven dream journeys for children and
the patron of a project called Secret Matter Porcupine,
a violence prevention programme for children
and adolescents founded in 1998 by fellow actor
Olaf Krätke.
