Gaslight
By Patrick Hamilton
Directed by Weylin Symes
May 27—June 13, 2010
Bella Manningham worries that her husband may be right when he says she's going mad. But on one eventful night, a mysterious stranger arrives and Bella begins to understand the truth behind the disappearing pictures, mysteriously dimming lights and haunting footsteps from above. Immortalized in a 1944 film treatment starring Ingrid Bergman, Patrick Hamilton's chamber mystery is a twisty and twisted portrait of a late Victorian London marriage.
