l’arte del mondo
Ein Liebesdreieck. Drei junge Menschen. Gefühle, die echt sind – und weh tun. Mit „Die Leiden des jungen Werther – New Sentimentalism“ bringt l’arte del mondo Goethes Werther-Stoff in die Gegenwart – als Musiktheater zwischen historischer Klangwelt und heutiger Bildsprache.
Werke der Empfindsamkeit treffen auf neue Kompositionen von Karsten Gundermann, gespielt auf Hammerklavier und mit Orchester. Doch diese Aufführung bleibt nicht im 18. Jahrhundert stehen: Anime-Ästhetik, Projektionen und digitale Erzählformen verbinden sich mit Live-Musik zu einer Geschichte über Nähe, Sehnsucht und die Frage, wie viel Gefühl eine Gesellschaft zulässt. Werther, Lotte und Albert sind jung.
Ihre Konflikte sind zeitlos – zwischen Intensität und Vernunft, Freiheit und Verantwortung. Die Leiden des jungen Werther – New Sentimentalism ist kein Reenactment, sondern ein Remix: Klassik trifft Social Media. Empfindsamkeit trifft New Sentimentalism. Die Bühne wird zum Resonanzraum für eine Generation, die fühlen will – ohne Ironie.
Auf den Geschmack gekommen? Zum „Werther“ gibt’s auch das Musical „Goethe!“.

How do I get to Forum Leverkusen?
The Forum Leverkusen is centrally located in the Wiesdorf district, making it easy to get there quickly and hassle-free. It is just a short walk from Leverkusen-Mitte railway station and the Wiesdorf bus station. We therefore recommend travelling by bus or train. For those arriving by car: the Forum has its own multi-storey car park with 380 spaces. However, the car park at the Forum fills up quickly, particularly during major events. If there is a traffic jam leading up to the entrance to the underground car park, please make sure to use one of the other car parks in the immediate vicinity.
Further information is available on the Forum’s website.

Can I bring my coat into the event?
Not in all cases. To ensure that all guests can evacuate quickly in the event of an emergency, the following items MUST NOT be brought into the Forum’s event rooms: Winter coats and jackets, large travel bags and rucksacks, booster seats and cushions (unfortunately, due to the folding mechanism of the seats, medical seat cushions are also not permitted in the Great Hall), pushchairs and walking frames, and other items (such as umbrellas) that could pose a tripping hazard. You are welcome to leave these items at the cloakroom. For events organised by the City of Leverkusen, Culture and City Marketing, this service is free of charge. For other events, the cloakroom fee is €1.50.
Is there catering available at the events held in the Forum?
Yes. For larger events at the Forum, our caterer provides delicious snacks or fresh finger food, as well as refreshing drinks. This allows visitors to enjoy a bite to eat or a speciality coffee even before the event begins. After the event, there is usually an opportunity to raise a glass with a refreshing drink.
