The Giggenhausen theater group resurrects the 70s in their new play.
There is a prop that was simply left in front of the club's door.
Giggenhausen
- It seems like a journey back in time to the 1970s, the stage set for this year's comedy by the Giggenhauser Maibaumfreunde theater group.
Since January, the tight-knit crew has been practicing their current production of the entertaining three-act play “Aunt Jane” by the contemporary author Robert A. Nemecec two to three times a week.
14 ambitious actors, seven on and seven behind the stage, are looking forward to providing their visitors with their piece as a distraction from everyday life, from crises and wars.
In addition to the joy of acting, theater fans are united by the desire to entertain.
The comedy in three acts, which is supposed to be light, relaxed and funny, even has “something fairy-tale-like,” says club chairwoman Verena Fiedler – “happy ending” included.
The piece also offers a local reference
But there is also a concrete local connection to reality, because the fictional Brösl bakery family in the play is threatened with existential dangers due to the opening of a large bakery in the municipality of Neufahrn: an allusion to Müller bread.
The action takes place exclusively in the Brösls' living room.
The special color and time-typical accents are set by a large and flashy wallpaper with an orange pattern that was popular around 50 years ago, as well as an orange telephone and a small table lamp.
The radio is also stylish: “Someone even gave it to us and just left it in front of the door,” reports Verena Fiedler, whose husband Christian not only works as a lighting technician, but is also skilfully and creatively responsible for the stage design.

Ludwig Krauss is the sound engineer and Christine Hepting is the make-up artist.
The ensemble includes three young talents, so that age-appropriate distribution of roles is possible - without the make-up aging and rejuvenation processes that are sometimes necessary in amateur theater.
Lots of positive energy for the audience
Michaela Oberprieler plays the baker's daughter Rosi.
Johannes Riedl makes his stage debut as a baker's apprentice and Samuel Loibl acts as a journeyman.
He is on stage together with his father Markus Loibl, who plays the calculating farmer Hyronimus Daxer and also directs.
Everyone does a little bit of everything and supports each other in the implementation: everyone contributes their thoughts and ideas.
“Can you put in a little more energy?” Verena Fiedler comments to the journeyman during a run-through test and immediately shows how she imagines it.
Mutual tips are part of constructive, democratic interaction with one another - with the director having the final say.
Christian Fiedler's wish: "We hope that our viewers go home more relaxed than when they came."
