About this show

Friends. Comrades. Enemies... Caillte Lighthouse. The North Sea just after WWI. The story follows two keepers and their training of a third before things occur that question their loyalty, friendship and ultimately, their sanity. Lighthouse is a gripping piece that delves into the human psyche of trust, paranoia and greed with stylish, well-placed humour, jeopardy, suspense and a stellar cast. Listed by The Herald as one of the Top 20 Must-See Shows of Edinburgh Fringe 2022, Lighthouse will take you on a 50-minute journey to hell and back like no other. It's not just the past that haunts you.
