The Last Light of Tullowyth is an immersive fantasy musical that invites audiences to step inside a living story. In a kingdom ruled by an evil queen, the rightful heir to the throne emerges from hiding, and she and her comrades ignite a rebellion to reclaim the crown. Told through original music, sharp humor, and lively audience interaction, the story unfolds all around you. For those who wish to opt in, up to eight audience members are invited into featured roles, becoming part of the unfolding tale. Guests are not merely spectators, but witnesses, allies, and co-conspirators who help shape the fate of the realm. Playful, heartfelt, and richly theatrical, The Last Light of Tullowyth is a communal adventure where laughter rings, courage matters, and light must be reclaimed together.
