The life of legendary Grimsby pub publican, Tommy Taylor

You don’t mess with Tommy Taylor. Everyone knows him – or do they? Three particularly harrowing days while fighting in the trenches of the Somme have turned him into one of Grimsby’s toughest pub landlords. But, with Britain once again on the brink of war and the Mariners playing a vital FA Cup semi-final against Wolves, it promises to be another challenging and poignant time for Tommy.

Performed at The Caxton Theatre, Grimsby

By John and Victoria Taylor

Directed by Cathy Bennett-Ryan

Opens Saturday 6 June through to Saturday 13 June 2026

For their latest play, journalists John (Tommy’s grandson) and Victoria Taylor have trawled family and local history archives to shine a light on the difficult inter-war years – known as The Long Weekend – in a Grimsby surviving the Great Depression with humour, beer, fish… and football.

Tommy’s Long Weekend is a funny, affectionate and nostalgic story, based on the life of the legendary local publican, starting with scenes from his time in the army and ending with Grimsby’s FA cup semi final against Wolves in 1939.

We meet his wife Nell, his son Jack, Mr Grange of Grange Wintringham, pub regulars Norm, Frank & Bob and Fifi, lady of the night, amongst others.

This is another first for the Caxton Theatre, a world premiere, a local play about local people which will be fascinating and fun for cast and audience alike.
