When Silence Becomes a Salvation: Ewald Arenz's "Old Varieties" at the Stadttheater Fürth

With "Old Varieties," one of the finest German-language narratives about vulnerability, closeness, and trust takes the stage at the Stadttheater Fürth. The novel adaptation of the bestseller by Ewald Arenz unfolds a literary experience that thrives on tranquility: a farm amidst fields and vineyards, two women with breaks in their lives, and a language that almost lets the landscape speak for itself. The event takes place on 2026-09-26 at 19:00 at the Stadttheater Fürth. ([tourismus-fuerth.de](https://www.tourismus-fuerth.de/event/alte-sorten-428736-mvk/))

A Chamber Play That Makes the Seasons Tangible

The story relies on the quiet rather than on effect. Sally escapes from the clinic, meets Liss, and finds in her work on the farm a form of protection that does not patronize. Potato harvesting, old pear varieties, marked trees, and the changing seasons shape this reading atmosphere on stage. It is precisely this poetic precision that makes the material so strong: it combines coming-of-age, psychological tension, and images of nature into a dense literary quality.

Ewald Arenz: Author Between Bestseller and Stage Art

Ewald Arenz was born in 1965 in Nuremberg, studied English and American literature as well as history, and according to his own biography, he is one of Germany's most productive and successful writers. His novels such as "Old Varieties," "The Great Summer," and "Love on Bad Days" became Spiegel bestsellers and were translated into many languages.
