Open-air Theatre in a Historic Setting
Burg Neuhaus towers high above the Bavarian Forest – and since 1997, it has been transformed into a natural stage every July. The Laienbühne Schorndorf e.V. turns the old walls into an atmospheric open-air stage, where Bavarian folk plays and comedies can be experienced, primarily from the pen of Georg Maier and his Iberlbühne.
Bavarian Dialect and Hearty Comedy
The trademarks of the performances are the authentic Bavarian dialect, a playful amateur troupe, and stories drawn directly from rural Bavaria – poachers, hunters, innkeepers, and local characters. The historic castle atmosphere provides an unmistakable setting for the comedies.
Theatre with Castle Inn
The castle inn provides refreshments before the performance and during the breaks. This makes a theatre evening at Burg Neuhaus a convivial summer experience for the entire region.
Theater auf der Burg — edition 2026
»Die weiße Gams« 2026
In a remote Bavarian mountain valley, a poacher causes trouble, stealing the finest bucks right under the noses of the authorities. A white chamois – an unusual mutation – is sighted repeatedly in the hunting grounds. The head forester desires its beard as an ornament for his hat and promises Grindfeichtl and Soacher promotion and more pay if they bring the animal down.
Directed by Kurt Laumer and Rita Reiser. The cast includes Kurt Laumer as innkeeper Nusserer and Manfred Schnitzbauer as head forester Grindfeichtl. A hearty Bavarian comedy by Georg Maier.
