In celebration of Sir Peter Maxwell Davies' 75th birthday, award-winning music theatre ensemble Psappha presents a major new production of Max's gripping chamber opera. The Lighthouse is based on the true story of three lighthouse keepers who disappeared mysteriously from their remote Flannan Isles lighthouse in 1900. Part ghost story, part psychological drama, The Lighthouse promises to provide an enthralling theatrical evening.

Pre-performance talk by Sir Peter Maxwell Davies at 6.45pm in the Phoenix Cinema, Pickaquoy Centre. Free to ticket holders.
