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.
