David Tennant plays John Halder in C. P. Taylor’s Good in the West End. Experience the timely Holocaust drama in London for the first time in over 40 years. The Good play offers a chance to see award-winning performers in action: David Tennant takes on the role of literary professor John Halder alongside the Olivier-winning actor Elliot Levey as John's German Jewish friend Maurice Glückstein. When Good premiered in 1980s London, critics raved about the play’s ability to explain Holocaust history, so much so it’s considered to be the leading play in its genre. Good made it to the top 100 plays of the 20th century according to the National Review. At the start of Good, audiences meet John Halder. He’s living a comfortable life in 1930s Frankfurt: he’s married, he has children, he looks after his family. He stands up for his Jewish friends, and disagrees with anti-Semitism. But that’s not all there is to him. Halder has flaws, and once the Nazi Party target his inner thoughts, he finds himself swept up in a political movement and becomes detached from reality. Can Halder stay "good"? Or will his life inevitably fall towards an unthinkable ending?
