The Oberhaindlfinger theater group celebrates its premiere on February 24th.
She shows the audience “How the wind is blowing right now”
Oberhaindlfing/Gundelshausen
– Visitors should enjoy a few “funny, carefree and beautiful hours” when they watch the play by the Volksverein Edelweiß Oberhaindlfing.
At least that's what director Sieglinde Lobmayer wants, who is rehearsing the Bavarian comedy "Wia grad da Wind waaht" by Ulla Kling together with nine actors.
On Saturday, February 24th, the curtain will rise in front of the audience for the first time.
Sieglinde Lobmayer has had her sights set on the piece for around seven years.
Now finally the story, in which the townswoman Isolde Brammler causes a stir in the country and with the neighboring innkeeper Martin Gamsreiter with an idiosyncratic action, is to be performed.
“It’s a piece where you can laugh and switch off,” promises the director.
Shortly before Christmas, Lobmayer tells FT, the theater group met for the first reading rehearsal, and since then they have rehearsed three times a week.
“It’s very time-consuming,” she says.
But the effort is worth it: “When you stand on stage at the premiere, the hall is full and people are clapping, you know it’s good.” The piece will be performed a total of seven times in Gundelshausen – including once on Sunday afternoon , so that children also have the opportunity to go to the theater.
Sieglinde Lobmayer, who has been acting since 1990 and took over the direction eight years ago, is “putting her heart and soul into it,” as she says.
Selecting a play, planning the setting, doing advertising, instructing actors – all the threads come together with her.
She works “for a lot of hours,” she says, “but I enjoy it.” And that is exactly the theater group’s recipe for success: the focus is on fun, togetherness and the joy of doing theater.
The director currently has a pool of around 15 actors aged 23 to 60, but new members are also welcome.
