In this episode of Trims and Talk, we sit down with the extraordinary John Rwothomack — a Ugandan-born, Sheffield-raised actor, playwright, and founder of Roots Mbili Theatre. At just 31, John has achieved what many spend a lifetime striving for: becoming a prolific storyteller and cultural bridge-builder whose work spans continents and communities.We explore his journey from arriving in Sheffield at 11, braving the cold and seizing opportunities, to carving out a space in theatre that speaks to cross-cultural collaboration and social change. Between two elders, John shares insights that remind us of the triumphs we often overlook — the victories of growth, collaboration, and the grounding power of community.This is more than a conversation; it’s a reminder that strength lies not only in our individual struggles, but in the people we meet, the stories we share, and the communities we build.
