Lukas Resetarits

In 1975 he joined the cabaret group KEIF, which consisted of Wolfgang Teuschl, Erwin Steinhauer, Alfred Rubatschek and Erich Demmer.

On 26 October 1977 he premiered his first solo program Rechts Mitte Links in the Konzerthauskeller. In May 1978 he presented his second solo program "A Krise muaß her", and performed a second TV cabaret with Teuschl and Steinhauer, Man wird ja noch fragen dürfen. He released his first LP vinyl record "Ein Abend mit Lukas Resetarits" ("An Evening with Lukas Resetarits") in 1979.
From 1980 to 1983 he was main actor in the Austrian TV series Kottan ermittelt, written by Helmut Zenker and directed by Peter Patzak.
Resetarits has been married since 1968 and has two daughters. Willi Resetarits (musician known as Dr. Kurt Ostbahn) and Peter Resetarits (TV host at ORF) are brothers. Karin Resetarits, a present member of the European Parliament, is his former sister-in-law.
