GASLIGHT – Sydney

Aussie Theatre has 3 x double passes to giveaway to GASLIGHT – Sydney at Roslyn Packer Theatre On Wednesday 21st Aug 2024.

Set to be one of the most talked about performances of 2024, Gaslight, a modern adaptation of the 1940’s suspenseful thriller by Patrick Hamilton and starring Geraldine Hakewill, Toby Schmitz and Kate Fitzpatrick will open at Sydney’s Roslyn Packer Theatre from 21 August.

Bella Manningham is a young wife who seemingly has it all – a nice home and a comfortable upper-middle class life. Her housekeepers, Elizabeth and Nancy, attend to her and help run the household. Her husband, Jack, appears attentive and loving. So why is Bella on edge? Despite his doting appearance, Jack is hiding something – he keeps disappearing in the evenings …and after he leaves, Bella hears strange sounds in the house. The gas lights dim for no apparent reason.

Is Bella losing her grip on reality? Or is something more sinister afoot? A much-used word in modern society, ‘gaslighting’ — psychologically manipulating people into questioning their own sanity — draws its origins from the play, in which the household’s gas lights flicker and dim on the evenings when Bella is alone, causing her to question her own sanity.

The competition closes on Wednesday 14th August @ 6pm AEST.

Winners will be contacted via email or phone.
