Matt is a powerful, emotionally driven play that follows the journey of a young man grappling with depression, addiction, and the slow path to recovery. Told through fragmented memories, raw present-day scenes, and inner monologue, the play captures the disorientation, isolation, and invisible weight of mental illness. As Matt’s world unravels, the play reveals how mental health challenges ripple through families and relationships. The tone is honest, intimate, and ultimately hopeful—moving from despair to resilience. Inspired by actual events, Matt invites audiences into an immersive and profoundly human story that breaks stigma and sparks meaningful dialogue.
In Proud Partnership with Norfolk and Waveney Mind
The work we do would not be possible without the extraordinary support of Norfolk and Waveney Mind. Their belief in our mission has strengthened our ability to reach young people, families, and communities with stories that speak openly and honestly about mental health.
Their support for our tour did more than help us perform — it helped us open doors to conversations that are often too hard to start, create moments of connection for those who feel alone, and deliver theatre that gives people the courage to speak, seek help, and feel seen.
Norfolk and Waveney Mind is a lifeline for countless individuals across our region. Their dedication to mental health awareness and community wellbeing amplifies everything we stand for at Reflect Productions GY CIC.
We are honoured to stand alongside them, united by the belief that sharing stories can save lives, and that through collaboration, we can create lasting, meaningful change.
