She was the face of German television, stood in front of the camera with greats such as Götz George and won the Golden Camera at the age of 22. But behind the glamorous façade, Muriel Baumeister battled an "evil friend" for years: alcohol. On June 2, 2026, the popular actress will come to the Seebadzentrum to read from her moving "courage book" and share her very personal story of getting up and moving on.
Honesty instead of confession
Muriel Baumeister has nothing to confess, but a lot to share. In her reading "Falling down is no shame, only staying down", she takes the audience on a rollercoaster ride through her life. She tells unembellished stories about her time in the fast lane, the deep fall into addiction and the harsh media criticism she was subjected to.
However, the focus of the evening is not on the crisis, but on overcoming it. With a good dose of humor and disarming naturalness, Baumeister talks about her journey out of addiction and the courage to get to know herself in a completely new way during withdrawal. The Berliner Morgenpost describes her narrative style as "refreshing and natural" - an energy that is hard to resist.
An evening full of strength and authenticity.
The audience can expect more than a classic reading. It is a look behind the scenes of the film world and at the same time a deeply emotional plea for human resilience. Baumeister owns up to her mistakes and shows that it is worth laughing in the face of life again.
