History

The earliest production listed by the group, Der kerngesunde Kranke, was reviewed by the Mittelbayerische Zeitung in January 1993.[3] A review of Wohin mit der Leiche in the early 2000s described the production as part of the long series of plays the group had staged over its ten years of existence.[4] The group later marked an anniversary with the open-air play D' Schiggeria.[5]

Repertoire

The repertoire alternates between boulevard comedies and crime comedies in the winter season and classical comedies and Bavarian folk plays for the summer open-air stage, including works by Carlo Goldoni, Johann Nestroy, Ludwig Thoma and Molière. Years in the table are those of the reviews in the Mittelbayerische Zeitung that the group lists for each production.[2]
