May Day Theater at the Civic Center

»Tough Times« –

A historical satire

by Eva Württemberger and Markus Bopp

Joint production: Vaihingen an der Enz and Youth and Culture Activity Center e.V.

After a devastating major fire in 1693, which also destroyed

the city’s archives, the citizen tried to reestablish law andorder. Amongst others, they took note of »unknown kindhear-ted people« who donated 300 Gulden (old currency) for the»Mayenlauf« (May-running-event); »From the interest rate youshall give the schoolchildren paper, twines (»Nesteln«) and redribbons in the month of May«.

Furthermore, all citizens in earthly or sacred positions aswell as the constables (policing authorities), received wine

as a gift on this day.

The oldest record of the May Festival can be found in anaccount book of the hospital, where you can read in the entryof May 25th, 1687, that »the children ran for paper«. Most impressive is the phrasing in the journal of the city’scourt, where it was decided on the 15th of April 1706, thateach year, the city shall »lead the children into May« if not prohibited by war or large migration.

The May Festival is the oldest earthly festival of Vaihingen.If not already celebrated earlier, it goes back to the order ofduke Eberhard III. of 1650. Only two years after the Peace ofWestphalia (series of treaties), which ended the devastating

30 year war, he ordered to celebrate a »Gratitude and PeaceFestival« in the entire dukedom. May Festivals can be traced inthe city of Lindau (only 1650), Lauffen am Neckar (where it isnot celebrated anymore) and Göppingen, where it is still verylively.

The fact that the »Gratitude and Peace Festival« has beenpreserved as a »Children and Spring Festival« has to be owed

to the donators and volunteer workers.

In Vaihingen the Festival has become one for the entire city,because since after the second world war, many historicgroups, diverse clubs and the sister city were included into theparade and many other events developed around the coreFestival.

History of the May Festival of Vaihingen Enz

32

In the year 1797, hospital director Wilhelm Fröscher decidesthat ‘enough is enough!’ and promptly submits a petition tothe town mayor. Folks want to celebrate the May Day in styleagain – come what may! Who cares how tough times are? If necessary he himself, the hospital director, will make fundsavailable by dipping into the hospital’s coffers; it would be only fair and just. Yet the forthright Fröscher has not reckoned with valiant scribe Löbert, who has his own ideasand knows exactly how to thwart the hospital chief ’s plans.Good advice is hard to come by. Possibly Johanna, theRapp’s clever barmaid, has an idea how to get aroundLöbert...A gripping, witty and educational satire in the Vaihingen dialect set against the background of the town’s colorfulhistory.

Alle: Lobe den Herrn, meine Seele, Halleluja!

Eine/Einer: Du, Gott, lässt frisches Wasser aus den Quellen sprudeln. Alles, was lebt kann seinen Durst stillen: Die Tiere des Feldes, das Wild, die Vögel.


Eine/Einer: Du, Gott, lässt es regnen. Früchte, Gras und Getreide können wachsen. Tiere und Menschen haben zu essen und können sich daran freuen.


Eine/Einer: Du hast Sonne und Mond gemacht, Tag und Nacht und den Jahresablauf eingeteilt. Alles, was lebt hat seinen Rhythmus. Wir sind tagsüber munter und ruhen in der Nacht.


Eine/Einer: Herr, unser Gott, wie sind deine Werke so groß und so viel! Du hast sie alle weise geordnet und die Erde ist voll deiner Güter!


Eine/Einer: Alle warten darauf, dass du ihnen zur richtigen Zeit gibst, was sie brauchen! Aber wenn du nicht bei ihnen bist, haben sie keine Zukunft.


Eine/Einer: Von dir, Gott, kommt das Lebendige! Du machst alles neu! Die Herrlichkeit des Herrn bleibt ewiglich, der Herr freue sich seiner Werke!


Amen.

Der Winter ist dahin,Hell glänzt der Auen Grün.Hell glänzt des Himmels lichtes Blau,Die Lüfte weh’n so frühlingslau,Allwärts, allwärts, allwärts die Blümlein blühn.

Der Matten frischer Duft,Durchwürzt die linde Luft,Es trinkt der Sonne gold’ner StrahlDen Morgentau in Berg und TalIm Wald, im Wald, im Wald der Kuckuck ruft.

So ist in hoher Pracht,Der junge Lenz erwacht,Und laut aus jubelvoller BrustErschallt der Vöglein Liederlust,Dass drob, dass drob, dass drob das Herze lacht.

Still sein und schweigen möchte ich und ich ahne das Geheimnis: Guter Gott, du findest mich.

4. »Der Frühling ist erschienen …«

Der Frühling ist erschienen;Der Winter dünkt uns nun ein Traum,Nun liegt die Welt im GrünenUnd schneeweiß schimmert Heck und Baum.Hört, wie so froh die Lerche ihr Lied erschallen lässt!Die Schwalben und die Störche beziehn ihr altes Nest.Mit fröhlicher Gebärde geht nun der Mensch und streutDen Samen in die Erde, den er auf Wucher leiht.Freut euch des Herrn, ihr Frommen,Und heißt mit lautem JubelrufDas junge Jahr willkommenUnd preist ihn, der den Frühling schuf.Seht, wie im Blumenkleide, die Wiese lieblich prangt!Nur der fühlt wahre Freude, der Gott von Herzen dankt.Auf, jeder pflügt und säe und singe froh dazu:Ehr sei Gott in der Höhe, auf Erden Fried und Ruh!

7. Im schönsten Wiesengrunde

Im schönsten Wiesengrunde ist meiner Heimat Haus,Da zog ich manche Stunde ins Tal hinaus.Dich, mein stilles Tal, grüß’ ich tausendmal!Da zog ich manche Stunde ins Tal hinaus.

Müsst aus dem Tal ich scheiden, wo alles Lust und Klang,Das wär mein herbstes Leiden, mein letzter Gang.Dich, mein stilles Tal, grüß’ ich tausendmal!Das wär mein herbstes Leiden, mein letzter Gang.

Sterb’ ich, in Tales Grunde möcht’ ich begraben sein,Singt mir zur letzten Stunde beim Abendschein:»Dir, o stilles Tal, Gruß zum letztenmal!«Singt mit zur letzen Stunde beim Abendschein.

(Wilhelm Christian Ganzhorn, 1851)

8. Nun danket alle Gott

Nun danket alle Gott mit Herzen, Mund und Händen,der große Dinge tut an uns und allen Enden,der uns von Mutterleib und Kindesbeinen anunzählig viel zugut bis hierher hat getan.

Der ewigreiche Gott woll uns bei unserm LebenEin immer fröhlich Herz und edlen Frieden geben,und uns in seiner Gnad erhalten fort und fortund uns aus aller Not erlösen hier und dort.

Lob, Ehr und Preis sei Gott, dem Vater und dem Sohneund Gott dem Heilgen Geist im höchstenHimmelsthrone, ihm, dem dreiein’gen Gott, wie es im Anfang war und ist und bleiben wird so jetzt und immerdar!

Text: Martin Rinckart, 1636
