Fort Lytton at Night - A Lost Story from the Great War

A unique promenade theatre piece, revealing Fort Lytton’s history and the forgotten story of one of its soldiers. This story was brought to the heritage site in 2014 by the granddaughter of Raymond Augustus Stanley. Ray served at the fort as a cadet, a Submarine Miner and a signaller, before volunteering for Gallipoli and the Western Front. Ray led the 5th Division Signals Company and experienced many of the most momentous battles of the First World War. He became the head of signalling in Queensland and was a well-known Brisbane figure in the 1920s. But his story was forgotten. Staged in the historic fortifications, and using sound and light, you are taken back in time and around the world.
