theater total besteuert e.V. (also written Theater „Total besteuert“) is an amateur theatre group based in Edenkoben, Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany, whose ensemble consists of active and former lecturers of the Hochschule für Finanzen Rheinland-Pfalz and teachers of the Landesfinanzschule Rheinland-Pfalz, both in Edenkoben.[1][2] It mainly stages comedies.[3]

History

The group was formed by lecturers of the finance college who otherwise teach tax law. Its original aim was to show students another side of their teachers and to offer them some variety in their studies; its audience has since grown to include colleagues from the tax administrations of Rhineland-Palatinate and Saarland as well as other theatre-goers.[1] The idea came from a lecturer who had previously acted in the Mannheim amateur theatre ImPuls.[2]

The founding year is given as 2005 by the town's event listing and a theatre directory,[3][4] and as 2006 by the group's own website.[1] The group first appeared on stage in 2006.[2] Keine Leiche ohne Lily (2018) was its seventh production and Die Spielverderber (2024) its eighth.[3][2]

Repertoire

The group's 2024 production, Michael Ende's Die Spielverderber, was a tragicomedy with twelve characters in four acts.[2] For Zwei wie Bonnie und Clyde (2025), the group announced double casting of the two leading roles.[5]

Venue

The group performs in the Kurpfalzsaal in Edenkoben and rehearses in the assembly hall of the finance college.[3][2][8] Because tax trainees from Saarland are also trained in Edenkoben, its productions are also shown at the Theater Überzwerg in Saarbrücken.[2] For the 2025–26 season it was scheduled to play for the first time at the Prinzregententheater in Ludwigshafen.[8][5]
