„Muh“ Miniaturtheater und Atelier is a small private theatre and studio in a former cowshed in Kliding, a village in the Eifel in the Cochem-Zell district of Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany.[1] It describes itself as the smallest private theatre in Rhineland-Palatinate and has been run since 2012 by a two-person ensemble that writes, directs and performs its own programmes.[2][3]
History
The theatre was built in the derelict cowshed of an old farmhouse in Kliding over about two years, from 2010 to 2012, largely by the two founders themselves with a few helpers. The seating and stage curtain were bought second-hand from the Mainzer Volkstheater. The theatre has operated since 2012.[2][3] In 2017 a small museum, the Mu(h)seum, with household objects from three centuries, was set up in the gable above the auditorium, and in January 2021 a guest room was added.[2]
Repertoire
The ensemble performs self-written plays and programmes, often as "theatre with people and puppets" using hand puppets built by the ensemble since 2014; occasionally a guest actor takes part.[3] Programmes in 2026 included scenes about the comedian Karl Valentin and Und immer wieder Loriot, after Loriot, which was also given as a guest performance at other venues, among them the KulturBühne Altes Wasserwerk in Kaisersesch.[4] For 2027 the theatre announced the premiere of a new comedy, Lost place – Seniorenresidenz Höllgrund und der Kampf seiner letzten Bewohner, and of the solo piece Alma in Auschwitz, in which a fictional contemporary witness recounts her experiences in the Auschwitz concentration camp.[4][1]
Venue
The playing space measures about 30 m², stage included, and seats 28 spectators; it has a small foyer and a bar, and in summer the garden is opened to guests before performances.[2][5]
Organisation
Besides theatre performances, the venue offers children's birthday parties with a small puppet show, scenic readings of a self-written children's book for libraries and primary schools, small weddings and family celebrations, and an annual open day of the theatre, studio and garden.[6][7][4]
Awards
The theatre's website names it as a winner of the Kulturförderpreis of the Cochem-Zell district in 2022.[8]
