Robert 'Bob' Goody (born 16 April 1951) is a British film and television actor, a writer and librettist and a former member of the Royal Shakespeare Company.
Bob Goody trained at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art. He was a founder member of the acclaimed theatre company Shared Experience performing the Arabian Nights trilogy. He played various characters with the company, including: the Ghost, the Player King and the Gravedigger in Hamlet. In 1987 he toured as Dr. Pinch in The Comedy of Errors and as the Ghost and the Gravedigger in Hamlet with the Royal Shakespeare Company. In 1991 he played the Chief Weasel in Alan Bennett's adaptation of The Wind in the Willows for the National Theatre at The Old Vic in London.
In January and February 2016 he played Lucky opposite Lorcan Cranitch and Jeff Rawle as Vladimir and Estragon and Richard Cordery as Pozzo in Samuel Beckett's Waiting for Godot at the Crucible Theatre in Sheffield. The production was described by The Telegraph as having a "stark brutality", and added that "Bob Goody’s Lucky is also tremendous, with his spidery, Dickensian limbs, yellowing hair and death-mask face, like some ghastly apparition resembling all their future selves."
