With the generous financial support of his daughter, John Chandler took it upon himself to produce the world premier of Lighthouse.  He hired a first rate experienced director in Ruth Monsell of Damariscotta to see it through.  He aquired the services of midcoast Maine's finest musical director, Sean Fleming, who also gathered a small orchestra and orchestrated the music for them.  He surrounded himself with fine tech people, world-class set painters, choreographers, costumiers, and actors.  Below are some candids of the resultant colorful performance.
