by Patrick Hamilton
A fogbound London, 1880. Bella Manningham lives an upper-middle-class existence but she is constantly on edge, in fear that she is losing her mind. The reproaches – and frequent disappearances – of her attractive but stern husband only increase her anxiety.
One night, another cause for concern comes knocking on her door – a private investigator who claims that Bella’s husband isn’t who he says she is, and that she is in very real danger. Who can Bella trust? Is she really losing her grip on reality?
Patrick Hamilton’s Gaslight is the dark and thrilling tale of a marriage shrouded in suspicion – a play whose power, proven by the recent usage of ‘Gas-lighting’, continues to reverberate.
This amateur production of "Gaslight" is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd. on behalf of Samuel French Ltd. www.concordtheatricals.co.uk.
