When a devil's apprentice fails on the good heart of a village
In the comedy The Devil's Apprentice by Benjamin Adam, the world order of hell is severely shaken. The Kolping Stage Starnberg brings the humorous stage adaptation to the stage from October 22, 2026, at the Catholic Parish Center St. Maria. The premiere promises a lively stage experience with pointed dialogues, quirky characters, and devilishly entertaining entanglements.
A hellish mission with human consequences
Friedernach seems to be the most unsuitable place for a devil. The people interact with one another in a friendly, helpful, and content manner. That's exactly why Luciver, ruler of hell and reluctant trainer, sends his unusual apprentice Sepratius to Earth.
Sepratius is about to take his final exam. Within a few days, he must create chaos, sow discord, and pit the peaceful village against each other. However, hospitality, shared meals, and an offered guest bed quickly throw his devilish mission off balance. Arrogance, half-knowledge, and stubbornness drive the story into a chain of misunderstandings.
A comedy about vanity, prejudices, and gossip
Benjamin Adam combines classical situational humor with a winking view of human weaknesses in his dramaturgy. Vanity, prejudices, and the joy of gossip become the driving force of the narrative. Behind the comedic entanglements lies the central question of whether good remains stronger than any cunning temptation.
The production thrives on clearly defined characters and a rapid comedic tempo. The stage design becomes the setting of a village, whose apparent harmony increasingly shows cracks beneath the surface. In the theater atmosphere, hellish missions and human everyday situations collide – a contrast that creates room for surprising twists and hearty laughter.
Nine performances in Starnberg
The Kolping Stage Starnberg will present the play a total of nine times at the Catholic Parish Center St. Maria. The premiere on Thursday, October 22, 2026, starts at 8:00 PM and will be accompanied by a premiere celebration in the lower foyer. Further evening performances will follow until November 7; on Sunday, November 8, a matinee performance is scheduled.
Before the show and during the intermission, the team will offer small snacks and drinks. Those who would like to end the theater evening sociably can then visit the foyer in the basement. Payment at the counters is only possible in cash.
Conclusion: A comedic theater evening with hellish charm
The Devil's Apprentice combines turbulent stage art with a warm-hearted story about community, prejudices, and the power of good. Culture enthusiasts will experience an engaging production by the Kolping Stage in Starnberg, pointed acting, and a comedy that playfully satirizes human weaknesses. Secure your tickets and experience the devilish stage experience live.
