Irish National Opera presents: The Lighthouse
A Scottish lighthouse goes dark. A visiting supply ship finds the building in order. But the keepers have vanished without trace.
Three singers in multiple roles explore the psychological state of the fractious men, relive an official investigation and project a supernatural explanation. The composer, who based the structure of the opera on the Tower of the Tarot, leaves no simple answers. Based on an actual event in December 1900.
World premiere of a new film version directed by Edwina Casey and presented in outdoor screenings at locations around Ireland.
Seating and headsets will be supplied and capacity is limited to 50. Pre-booking necessary and all performances are weather permitting.
