Aurel Klug
Aurel has a wonderful sense of humour and loves to laugh — most of all at himself. He meets life with good spirits and approaches the people around him with sensitivity and attention. At just eleven years old, he stood on stage in his first leading role at the Junges Theater Bonn, playing Krümel in "The Brothers Lionheart". It didn't stop there: he is currently developing a new stage adaptation of Morton Rhue's "The Wave" together with the theatre's artistic director and other young actors. Aurel has been part of the Neidig family since 2018 and has since shot for various cinema and television productions, including "Catweazle", "Cloudy Skies", and "SOKO Köln". In his free time, he plays football for his hometown club with real passion — and more recently, golf as well.
