He ended the three-year contract halfway through the time. He was able to celebrate a great public success with the play Der Brandner Kaspar und das Ewig 'Leben , which was also staged for television in 1975. In 1976 Josef Bierbichler met the playwright and director Herbert Achternbusch , with whom he founded a shared apartment in Ambach.

In 2012 he played Joe Hynes in the radio play Ulysses based on James Joyce , which, with a running time of more than 22 hours, is the longest radio play to date on Südwestrundfunk and one of the most elaborate radio play productions on ARD .
In all of his roles, Bierbichler always speaks with the linguistic coloring of his Bavarian native dialect. He writes columns for the magazine Theater der Zeit .
