“Please don’t be charmed, he’s not a lovable rogue…” Loosely based on Molière tragicomedy ‘Don Juan’, this savagely funny and filthy modern update transports the action to contemporary London and follows the final adventures of its debauched protagonist – a cruel seducer who lives only for pleasure.
David Tennant is well known to television, theatre and film audiences alike through performances which have won him The Critics’ Circle Award for Best Shakespearean Performance and the National Television Awards’ Outstanding Drama Performance.
