The Heimatbühne Westendorf e. V. is an amateur theatre association in Westendorf in the district of Augsburg, Swabia, Bavaria, Germany. Founded in January 1971, it stages a Bavarian or Swabian farce every winter season around Christmas and New Year in the Gasthof "Zur Krone" in Westendorf.[1][2]
History
The association was founded in January 1971 and staged its first play, Franz Schaurer's Urlaub vom Doppelbett, at Easter 1971; since then it has performed one play each winter season. The 2020/21 and 2021/22 seasons were cancelled because of the COVID-19 pandemic.[1] Claudia Wagner, who has acted with the group since Christmas 1980, has chaired it since 1996. At its general meeting in 2026 the association looked back on its 2025/26 season with Die wilde Kathy and announced that it would celebrate 55 years of theatre in Westendorf; a planned community hall in Westendorf was to include a room for its stage equipment. Besides the winter productions, members appear at the parish carnival, and recordings of the plays are shown at a summer open-air cinema in the village.[3]
Repertoire
The association has staged more than 50 productions, mainly farces and comedies by authors such as Franz Schaurer, Maximilian Vitus, Hermann Schuster and, since 2001, Bernd Gombold and Walter G. Pfaus.[1]
