The Theater Indersdorf e. V. is an amateur theatre association in Markt Indersdorf in the district of Dachau, Bavaria, Germany.[1] Founded in 1970, it stages one new production a year, traditionally in the baroque hall (Barocksaal) of the former Kloster Indersdorf, with a repertoire ranging from boulevard comedies and crime plays to plays of social criticism.[2][3]
History
The group was founded in 1970 by its long-time director, who led it until his farewell production in 2005. Since then it has staged a new play every year in the week around the Day of Repentance and Prayer in November in the Barocksaal of Kloster Indersdorf.[2][4] It marked its 20th anniversary in 1990 with an evening of short plays by Ludwig Thoma and Karl Valentin, and in 1996 staged two Thoma one-act plays for the 75th anniversary of his death.[5]
The old stage in the Barocksaal, dating from the 1960s, was dismantled in 2017 because it no longer met fire-safety rules. The group played its 2018 production in the new hall of the Realschule, and a production rehearsed there in spring 2020, Heilig Abend, was cancelled three weeks before the premiere because of the COVID-19 pandemic.[6][7] A new stage in the renovated Barocksaal, funded with 3,900 euros by the Bürgerstiftung Markt Indersdorf, opened on 17 November 2023 with Fitzgerald Kusz's Stinkwut; some performances had to be moved to January 2024 because of illness.[7][6] The 2025 production was played in April instead of November.[8]
Repertoire
In the first two decades the group played mainly Bavarian Volksstücke and farces, including many plays by Ludwig Thoma; later productions include crime plays by Agatha Christie, Friedrich Dürrenmatt's Die Physiker and comedies by Neil Simon and Fitzgerald Kusz.[2]
