The Kleine Jorker Bühne e.V. is an amateur theatre group in Jork in the Altes Land, Lower Saxony, Germany.[1] Founded in 1981, it stages a Christmas play for families every winter in the Jorker Festhalle and regularly presents open-air productions in summer, ranging from Shakespeare to Yasmina Reza.[1]
History
The group was founded in 1981; its first productions in 1982 were Curt Goetz's comedies Die tote Tante and Die Taube in der Hand and the fairy tale Der Froschkönig.[2] Since then it has produced one or more plays for adults and a children's play nearly every year. In 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic, it ran the project KJB goes Film instead of stage productions, and in 2021 it staged an original piece, Anders, was nun?.[2] The association also holds an annual summer party for its members.[1]
Repertoire
The repertoire combines fairy tales and children's classics for the winter season with comedies, dramas and classics by authors such as Shakespeare, Molière, Goethe and Mrożek, crime dinners and musicals.[2]
