Wigald Boning: He speaks so touchingly about the late Mirco Nontschew
“I’ve never seen him be abusive or abusive, but he also carried a melancholic note when he wasn’t on stage.” Mirco Nontschew, † 52, was found dead in his Berlin apartment in December 2021. Wigald Boning: “I was sitting with my parents for lunch when I got a text message from Hugo Egon Balder, 72. There has never been a more surprising death message for me.”
