The Lighthouse Girl Saga
May 23 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
$25
When the world is dark with war, courage and heart light the way home.
Directed by Stuart Halusz and featuring Sienna Cate, Isaac Diamond and Nick Maclaine, The Lighthouse Girl Saga is a sweeping story of ordinary people living in extraordinary times.
This bold adaptation by award-winning Western Australian playwrights Jenny Davis OAM and Hellie Turner, is a tale of courage, resilience, hope and love based on four novels by award-winning WA author Dianne Wolfer – Lighthouse Girl, Light Horse Boy, In the Lamplight and The Last Light Horse.
Striking visuals, evocative sound and innovative staging transport the audience with the First Australian Imperial Force convoy as it embarks from King George Sound and farewells Australia from the beacon of the lighthouse at Breaksea Island, to the hell of Gallipoli, the mud in the trenches at the Western Front, a nurse’s compassion in rural England and peaceful horizons in country Victoria.
Join Fay, Charlie, Jim, Rose and Sandy – the only war horse to return to Australia of 136,000 sent to war – as they journey across seas and through the mire, and as their intersecting stories culminate in the forging of the ANZAC spirit and a love that conquers all.
Duration: 105 minutes no intermission
Tickets from $25
