The Rassoburg-Theater Grafrath e. V. is an amateur theatre association in Grafrath in the district of Fürstenfeldbruck, Upper Bavaria, Germany. Formed in 2004 and registered as an association in 2008, it stages up to three productions a year – Bavarian comedies, serious folk plays and dramas – at three venues in Grafrath and Schöngeising.[1]
History
The group began in Grafrath in 2004; in 2008 its amateur actors founded the registered association Rassoburg-Theater Grafrath e. V. Many of the original players have remained with the group.[1] For years Günter Mayr was its head, director and actor; his open-air productions at the Jexhof farm museum included Das Tagebuch der Anne Frank, Der Brandner Kaspar and, in 2016, Die Apostelwascher, a version of a television musical play by Alois Johannes Lippl with a sung narrator, a choir and the Grafrather Geigenmusi.[1][2][3] Since 2018 Barbara Lackermeier has directed several productions, including Pension Schöller (2019), Indien (2022) and Paradiso (2023).[3]
Repertoire
In the Bürgerstadl the group mostly plays humorous pieces in Bavarian dialect; in the Dachsaal Marthashofen it has staged dramas and evenings of scenes by Loriot and Karl Valentin; and the Jexhof is used for open-air productions in summer.[1]
