3AM Theatre presents
“First Light”

the great unknown

Performed by eight performers, First Light explores the human condition through themes of ambition, loss, transcendence, and empathy.

Visually striking and emotionally charged, the work draws audiences into a journey of explorers set out to ascend the tallest mountain known to exist.

Their ambition soon becomes a reckoning with memory, loss, and the unseen forces that shape our fate.

As the characters rise and falter, are lost and found, their physical odyssey becomes a meditation on perseverance, connection, and acceptance.
