Werther is a story of impossible love, binding promises and missed opportunities, based on the loosely autobiographical German novel The Sorrows of Young Werther by Goethe. Set in France, the story centres on Werther, a passionate young poet who has fallen in love with Charlotte, the eldest daughter of a local family. Having made a promise to her dying mother, Charlotte is already betrothed to another man. Despite this, the young Werther cannot let go of his feelings for her, which sets the scene for this poignant tale of heartbreak and tragedy.
