You are here: What's On > Reflex Theatre presents Call Me John

A grandfather and grandson sit apart on a black background. The grandson is reading a book, the grandfather is playing with a puppet.

About

John is worried he will be forgotten after he's passed on. When his troubled grandson comes to visit, he decides to share his life story, hoping to inspire him. But can John's history really connect with the "youth of today"?

Reflex Theatre revives this local tale of love, conflict, loss and hope that spans generations and beyond.

Nominated for two 2024 Norfolk Arts Awards (New Writing & Theatre Award)

There will be a post-show discussion with the cast and director after the performance.

"Captivating. Wonderful storytelling and acting." East Anglian Theatre Podcast

"A brilliant, beautiful play of such poignance…" Peter Steward

"Neatly crafted, a charming and gentle play…" Cultivated

This production has been made possible with funding from Alan Boswell Charitable Trust, East Suffolk Council, Hornsea 3 Community Fund and Norfolk Community Foundation.
