Leiferder Bühne e. V. is an amateur theatre group in Braunschweig, Lower Saxony, Germany, based in the city's Leiferde district. The association has existed since 2012 and performs comedies, sketches, Christmas plays and improvisational theatre in Braunschweig, Salzgitter, Wolfenbüttel and the surrounding area.[1]
History
In its early years the group mainly appeared with sketches and short shows at local events, such as the Leiferde village fair, the shooting club's royal ball, a Christmas play in front of the Leiferde community centre and the centenary of the sports club MTV Dorstadt in 2012.[2] From 2018 it added fairy-tale plays, such as Aladdine und der Geist aus der Lampe, and comedies such as Hauptsache grün! (2020) and Ein Kiosk kommt selten allein (2022).[3]
In 2023 the group presented Die Rabenmutter at the Theatertage of the Amateurtheaterverband Niedersachsen e. V. on the island of Baltrum.[4] The same year it also staged an evening of improvisation, readings and short plays, Theater mal anders, and a Christmas play, Jan im Glück.[5]
Repertoire
Many of the group's comedies are written by its member Heike Ilgner, who also acts in them. According to her own account, the plays were first tried out by the Leiferder Bühne and several are published by the Plausus theatre publishing house, among them Hauptsache grün, Ein Kiosk kommt selten allein (also in a Low German version, Een Kiosk kümmt selten alleen), Nachbarn vom Feinsten and two Christmas fairy tales.[6]
In recent years the group has toured a new comedy in the summer. Nachbarn vom Feinsten was performed in 2024, among other venues at Das KULT Theater in Braunschweig.[7] The 2026 summer tour, Villa mit Aussicht, comprised eight performances in and around Braunschweig.[1]
Organisation
The Leiferder Bühne is a registered association (e. V.) and a member of the Amateurtheaterverband Niedersachsen. It rehearses weekly at the community centre in Leiferde and in its own rooms in Braunschweig, and welcomes guest players for single productions.[1][8][9]
