History
The group was founded in 1978 by the local historian Werner Voß together with footballers of the Vahrendorfer Turnverein. Its name refers to the Bickbeern-Schweiz, a local landscape once known for its bilberries (Bickbeern).[1] The first production, Piepen för de Peer, was staged in 1978; the group revived it for its 40th anniversary in 2018, when it also held an anniversary gala.[3]
No performances took place in 2020 and 2021 because of the COVID-19 pandemic.[3] In December 2024 the group cancelled its 2025 season for lack of performers: only ten members were active as actors, most of them older, which made younger roles hard to cast.[4] It returned in January 2026 with Een kommodigen Avend, a comedy by Ingo Sax adapted by Sandra Keck, which premiered to a sold-out house.[2]
Repertoire
The group performs Low German comedies, one production per season with several performances; it rehearses twice a week for five months in Nenndorf's primary school.[1]
