Venue information Get DirectionsFor a limited run of 4 weeks, THE GOOD PERSON OF SZECHWAN by Nina Segal is coming to London’s Lyric Hammersmith
“What is the cost of being good?”
In the hustle and bustle of a modern-day metropolis, it’s a dog-eat-dog world and Shen Te is doing all she can to get by.
When three gods reward her hospitality with a life-changing sum of money, Shen Te opens a tobacco shop and claims the stability she’s always dreamed of. But the struggle is not over yet; she is forced to question the cost of her own survival as she resorts to scheming and deceit to flourish in this capitalist world.

The play follows a young prostitute, Shen Teh , as she struggles to lead a life that is “good” according to the terms of the morality taught by the gods, and to which her fellow citizens of Szechwan pay no regard.
