Edgar Selge turns 75: a birthday conversation with the “police call” commissioner

His acting career is multifaceted like no other: Edgar Selge was a legendary “police call” commissioner, played the great classics, and was always political. A birthday talk

Mr. Selge, are you a fan of big festivals?
My wife and I like to celebrate our birthdays, but prefer to do it with family. This time we’re playing the play “Rosige Aussicht” at the Komödie am Kurfürstendamm every day, and since we’re on stage every evening, I’ll invite this team to dinner on the Monday when there are no games. Twenty people, friends, family.

In the past, if you were celebrating your 75th birthday, you got gift baskets and a congratulatory card from the mayor. Has anything like this happened?
You’re right, I remember my father had something like that. I have already received mail from the Federal President and the Federal Chancellor for my seventies, so I am not expecting anything more.
