Heinrich Schafmeister – Sir John Raffley Heinrich Schafmeister is one of those actors whose face you never forget and who simply make every production better in which they appear. As a versatile character actor, he has earned a good reputation just as much as a man for concise and stylish comedy. In Bad Segeberg, he will now embody an original character from Karl May's work as the British "Sir John Raffley", who has never appeared in the open-air theatre at the Kalkberg before.

Isabel Varell – Señorita Miranda For Isabel Varell, the world is a fascinating place full of playgrounds where she can let off steam – and she has been doing so extensively and with great passion since the beginning of her career. This is because the temperamental artist from the Lower Rhine has never wanted to commit to a single profession. She is an actress, singer, author, and presenter. As "Señorita Miranda," she can use several of her talents at once at the Kalkberg. In addition to acting, she will also dance and sing. Additionally, she has also learned to ride specifically for this role.
