Annelisa Weiland

“Annalisa was a diminutive young woman in her early twenties with great inner beauty when, in the Seventies”

“Her talent as an actress, for which I’ve always been full of admiration, and was well aware of, but her prowess as a musician on the piano was a surprise. I was so impressed by her virtuosity on the piano and have ever since, often wondered if she had possibly missed her real vocation.”

“She is fun, charming and has a compelling presence”

“It doesn’t detract from the fact that she is an extraordinarily versatile and instinctive actress, constantly in demand, never out of work, and has acted in everything from musical theatre, “although I cannot sing”, to comedy, farce, to Shakespearean drama”

“It’s an even stranger phenomenon…that one should choose a profession to try to be someone else all day”
