Description Set in Ireland, with a touch of fantasy, THE LAST TORCH is a new exciting musical poised to take the world by storm. It's Les Miserables meets Game of Thrones. This musical is an adventure through time and space connecting the past to the present through music. THE LAST TORCH is set in 16th century Ireland, where survivors of a shipwreck from the Spanish Armada have washed ashore setting the stage for the forces of love, liberty, sovereignty, spirituality and magic to collide. With a mixture of Spanish and Irish music, this musical tells of the last clan leader standing against the English.
