From the makers of A.B. Facey’s ‘A Fortunate Life’ Theatre 180 presents… THE LIGHTHOUSE GIRL SAGA. Boyup Brook Tourism Association with the support of local sponsors Rhodes Pastoral, Lions Club of Boyup Brook and Afgri, are thrilled to bring this award-winning production to Boyup Brook.
A sweeping story of ordinary people living in extraordinary times: a tale of courage, courage, resilience, hope and love.
Striking visuals, evocative sound and innovative staging transports the audience with the First AIF 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.
Journey with Fay, Charlie, Jim, Rose and Sandy, the only warhorse to return to Australia of the 136,000 sent to war, as their intersecting stories culminate in the forging of the ANZAC spirit and a love that conquers all.
Join in the fun early on the lawns at the Town Hall from 5pm with a picnic style meal prepared by St Mary’s P&F. Order your Grazing Boxes when booking your tickets on this site.
