He finds himself becoming a proverbial “grumpy old man.” When, at the advice of a friend, he goes looking for something to spice up his life, he finds out that maybe things aren’t so bad after all. Or, maybe they are!

If you’re looking for a play with good, strong roles for older adults, many community theater’s most well-represented demographic, look no further. John 360 is filled with enough humor and drama to keep your audience engaged until the very end. As the play comes to a close, and the last line is spoken, expect to hear a spontaneous wave of “awwwwwws” from the audience too. If you listen closely, you might even hear a few sniffles. Keep the hankies nearby for this one.
