Production photos have been released for Farewell Mister Haffmann, the critically acclaimed French hit making its London premiere at the Park Theatre.
Farewell Mister Haffmann is now playing at the Park Theatre in London until 12 April 2025.
An all-star cast includes Michael Fox (The Fear of 13, Othello, Downton Abbey) as Pierre Vigneau, alongside Nigel Harman (EastEnders, Shrek the Musical) as Otto Abetz, Jennifer Kirby (Untitled F*ck M*ss S**gon Play, The Massive Tragedy of Madame Bovary) as Isabelle Vigneau, Jemima Rooper (The Inheritance, As If) as Suzanne Abetz, and Alex Waldmann (Arms and the Man, Jews In Their Own Words) as Joseph Haffmann.
A blend of dark humour, suspense, and high-stakes drama, Jean-Philippe Daguerre’s award-winning play follows an unconventional deal struck in Nazi-occupied Paris. When Jewish jeweller Joseph Haffmann hands over his shop to employee Pierre Vigneau in exchange for safety, an unexpected condition turns their arrangement into a tense—and at times absurd—game of survival. As pressures mount, a Matisse painting, an art-loving Nazi officer, and his flamboyant wife complicate matters even further.

Directed by Oscar Toeman, with an English adaptation by Jeremy Sams, the production had an acclaimed debut at Theatre Royal Bath in 2023.
Set in Nazi-occupied Paris, Farewell Mister Haffmann is a powerful tale of survival, moral dilemmas, and unexpected alliances. Originally a Molière Award-winning hit in France, Jean-Philippe Daguerre’s gripping play blends dark humour and suspense against the background of unprecedented times.
