Founded in 1983, it stages comedies, Bavarian ''Volksstücke'' and musicals as well as a fairy-tale play for children every year in the Klement-Saal in Isen.<ref name="merkur2019" /> In 2019 it received the cultural prize of the district of Erding.<ref name="merkur2019" /><ref name="pm2019" />

== History ==
Amateur theatre in Isen goes back to 1903, when a ''Theatergesellschaft'' was founded; it broke up after a few years. In 1920 a second group founded the ''Musik- und Theater-Verein Isen'' together with the local choral society, which was dissolved in 1928; afterwards plays were staged only occasionally by the gymnastics club and the choral society.<ref name="chronik2008" />

The present club held its founding meeting on 15 January 1983 in a side room of the Gasthaus Klement, and gave its first performance, the two one-act plays ''Die Brautschau'' and ''Rote Ruabn'', on 5 November 1983. Its first Christmas fairy tale, ''Hänsel und Gretel'', followed on 22 December 1984. In 1990 it took part with the children's play ''Kikerikiste'' in the second international ''Volkstheatertage'' in Rosenheim. A youth group, the ''Bühnenflöhe'', was formed in 1991, and in 1992 the experimental group ''Wexelbad'' for modern plays. In 1995 members appeared in the [[wikipedia:ZDF|ZDF]] production ''Der schönste Tag im Leben'', partly filmed in the Klement-Saal. For the 1250th anniversary of Isen in 1997 the club took part in the ''Historisches Markttreiben''.<ref name="chronik2008" /> By its 20th anniversary in 2003 more than 26,000 spectators had seen 60 different productions.<ref name="chronik2008" /> There were no performances in 2020, 2021 and 2023.<ref name="chronik" />

== Repertoire ==
The club's main production alternates between comedies, boulevard plays and Bavarian ''Volksstücke'', and since 1984 it has staged a fairy-tale play for children before Christmas; children's and youth groups have also put on their own productions.<ref name="chronik" /><ref name="chronik2008" /> According to the regional press, its plays often take up social themes, such as the decline of village shops in ''Eine ganz heiße Nummer'' (2018) and dementia in ''Honig im Kopf'' (2019).<ref name="merkur2019" />
