Gaslight

by Patrick Hamilton
directed by Stella Gheury de Bray

Gaslight

Why does the gaslight flicker?  Whose footsteps can be heard in the locked room overhead?  Is Bella going mad, as her mother did?  What became of the famous Barlow Rubies when their owner was brutally murdered?

This "Victorian Thriller" remains as entertaining now as when it was first produced in the 1930s, and is perfect for a pre-Christmas outing.

Friday 11th to Saturday 19th December 2009
This production opens on the Friday - it's not a mistake!

Performances at 7.45p.m., except Sunday 13th December when the performance is at 4p.m.

There is also a matinee at 3p.m. on Saturday, 19th December. No performance on Wednesday, 16th December.
