Booking to 7 January 2023
David Tennant returns to the West End
Olivier Award-winner Dominic Cooke (Follies) directs David Tennant (Doctor Who, Good Omens) in Good – a timely and prescient play that invites you to question what a “good” man is and where the bounds of responsibility lie.
Set in pre-war Germany, it shows how the average person might be seduced in to actions that we see as abhorrent.
Following his acclaimed performances in Don Juan in Soho, Much Ado About Nothing and Richard II, David Tennant returns to the West End for 11 weeks only in one of Britains most powerful political plays.
Good is booking to 7 January 2023 at the Harold Pinter Theatre, London.
