The Theaterverein Heimatbühne Selb e. V. is an amateur theatre association in the town of Selb in the district of Wunsiedel, Upper Franconia, Bavaria, Germany. Founded on 10 March 1987, it stages comedies and farces, mainly Bavarian folk plays translated into the local Selb dialect, in the Rosenthal-Theater Selb.[1]

History

The association was founded on 10 March 1987 by a small group who wanted to play theatre with a focus, though not exclusively, on the Bavarian folk play; rather than crude rural farce, they wanted to stage comedies with genuine situation comedy and subtle wit. The plays are translated into the Selb dialect and adapted to local circumstances. Besides the theatre, club life includes celebrations, hikes such as an annual winter hike with up to 40 participants, and contacts with other theatre groups. The group builds and paints its own sets.[1]

Repertoire

The association stages two productions a year, each performed twice in the Rosenthal-Theater, and also performs at club events such as anniversaries and Christmas parties.[1] Productions include 14 Tage Luxus,[2] Eine unvergessliche Nacht by Walter G. Pfaus (15 November 2025)[3] and, for the 600th anniversary of the town of Selb, Arno Boas's three-act comedy Jubiläumszinnober, performed on 7 and 21 March 2026.[4]

Venue

The association performs in the Rosenthal-Theater, the municipal theatre of Selb.[1]
