Starring Kate Brennan, Declan Conlon, Bosco Hogan and Robert O'Mahoney, The Sanctuary Lamp tells of three people locked in a Catholic Church for the night; an ex-circus strongman who prays to the Sanctuary Lamp for strength, a run-away waif haunted by her past and an Irish blackguard...
The much acclaimed Tom Murphy directs this revival of his own play for b*spoke theatre company. Described by the Guardian as one of Irish Theatre's "proudest possessions", Murphy has been a major influence on a generation of Irish Theatre makers and his distinctive voice remains a major force in the contemporary repertory.
