Set in foggy 1880’s London, GASLIGHT is a Victorian Thriller, the story of a husband and a wife in conflict over reality and truth.

In this gripping psychological mystery piece, a seemingly perfect marriage becomes a maze of manipulation, suspense and surprises. An entertaining, timely, and insightful study of the distortion of truth and how reality can be quietely undermined.

This classic Victorian masterwork is the play that originated the term so often used today, “gaslighting.”
