Theaterverein Unterdießen e. V. is an amateur theatre group in Unterdießen, district of Landsberg, Upper Bavaria, Germany. Founded in 1976 as the amateur theatre section of the local marksmen's club and independent since 1997, it stages a Bavarian comedy every year in late autumn on the stage of the village's multi-purpose hall.[1][2]
History
Plays were performed in Unterdießen and Oberdießen by the local cycling club founded in 1923; from 1946 the former village barber Ludwig Marquard led the players, and from 1966 the Catholic rural youth took over, playing in the Höflersaal or at the Zapfenwirt inn.[1]
After the multi-purpose hall with its stage opened in October 1975, a group around Erich Aichinger met on 27 January 1976 and founded a theatre section of the marksmen's club Wiesbachschützen Unterdießen; Peps Pschorr, who had long directed in Landsberg am Lech, became its stage director. The group first appeared in December 1976 with the one-act play Die Generalprobe. In 1978, 1,380 spectators saw the five performances of Heirat auf Befehl, a record that still stands; because staging two plays a season proved too demanding, the group has given only one production per season since then.[1] Pschorr's own play Die Zuchtsau premiered on 30 December 1978.[1]
On 17 February 1992 the multi-purpose hall burned down, destroying almost all of the group's sets, worth about 23,000 DM; the group paused for a year and built new sets, and resumed playing in 1993. The new start also led to the group becoming an independent club: after five years of negotiations with the marksmen's club, new statutes were adopted on 12 September 1997 and the club was entered in the register of associations as Theaterverein Unterdießen.[1] There were no productions in 2020 and 2021 because of the COVID-19 pandemic, and none in 2025 because of building work.[3]
Repertoire
The club plays Bavarian comedies and farces. Rehearsals start about three months before the premiere, two or three times a week.[1][2]
