Link to my review of Jean-Philippe Daguerre’s play FAREWELL MISTER HAFFMAN. This is the British premiere of the 2018 French play which was laden with awards. It’s set in Paris in 1942, where the jeweller Joseph Haffman, who is Jewish, gives his shop to his French employee, Pierre. He will hide in the cellar below the shop. In return, the sterile Pierre insists Joseph impregnate Isabelle, his wife. Then we meet the Nazi Ambassador to France … It’s a wonderful production at Bath’s Ustinov Studio, with a theatrical A-list cast.
