Thanks to the Google translator, here's the article in English (sort of) :

Young German star David Kross goes to London
Young star David Kross ( "The Reader", "Krabat") rather relies on a solid education as a career on the fast. "I'm going to London to visit for three years, the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Arts," said the 19-year-old. He would necessarily work in the theater. "I'm fascinated by it and have a great respect for it. I would never do without training, "Kross also provides a pleasant side effect:" I will learn the language without an accent, so I'm not some Nazi must play if I want to play in an international film. "Kross in the larger film projects can not realized during his training in London, only in the summer in between times, he could face the camera.

Thanks for that, Ellen. That translator obviously works quite well, ha-ha!

I have tried and tried to open and read that article. It opens but it will not scroll, and it hangs up my computer every time.

It works fine for me ERinVA.

I found this today, I know a bit old but I quote

"The Oscar nominee is about to begin rehearsals for the stage version of Billy Elliot, with songs by Elton John "

{Also note a reader comment below about Billy's relevance to the Korean mind.}

Stephen spoke very movingly at Tanner's farewell show. You could see and hear that he was very emotional and in fact he commented on it.

I saw Stephen had a guest with him at the pub before Tanner's show. I walked by then did a double-take. The young man looked like David Kloss, co-star with Kate Winslet in "The Reader." (I wonder if David was at Tanner's show and if so, what he thought of "Billy."?

I asked Stephen if he would be in NYC for the cast leavings next weekend. He assured me he would attend.

You are obviously right, John, as David Kross is currently studying in London at the London Academie of Music and Dramatic Arts - LAMDA.
