2026-08-25 to 2026-08-29 | The Good Life at Halifax Playhouse

25 to 29 AUGUST: Based on the TV series by John Esmonde and Bob Larbey, Haliax Thespians perform an amateur production of “The Good Life” presented by arrangement with Nick Hern Books.

When suburban couple Tom and Barbara Good decide to swap the pressures of the rat race for an alternative and more sustainable way of living, they set about turning their home into a model of self-sufficiency.

They grow their own fruit and veg, keep livestock in the garden, make their own clothes, and even generate their own electricity from manure.

It’s the good life for them – but not for heir next-door neighbours Margo and Jerry Leadbetter who are desperately trying to maintain their snooty Surbiton status quo.

When: Tuesday 25 to Saturday 29 August at 7:30pm. Evenings at 7.30pm and Saturday matinee at 2.30pm.

Where: Halifax Playhouse, King Cross Street, Halifax HX1 2SH.

Tickets £12.94
