I stand alone on stage. Everyone in the audience looks at me. Anything can happen now: I can’t remember my lines and start smiling embarrassed, or I know my lines perfectly but still don’t say them because I want to soak up that moment of pure excitement until the last drop. In this second I realised that I need more of these situations where I can do anything but nothing is safe. I want to do this as my profession.  

This defining occasion from my school’s drama course changed my life. First I planned to become a salesman because I like to deal with people, or start a career as a translator because I’m good at languages.  

So, hello there. I’m Jannik Hazelhof. I was born on 4th September 2000. Now I get to know different characters, professions and situations within my job. Back then I couldn’t decide for which profession to go, but now I can try out various in character. Whereas in my hometown nothing much exciting happened, I now can experience different characters in the most different situations. What kind of characters I get to know and play in the future? I am so curious.
