"Angel Street" (also known as "Gaslight") by PatRick Hamilton is one of the all-time great thrillers, a night of theatrical magic that captivates the audience from start to finish and keeps you guessing right up to the end. If you've never seen the play that the famous 1940s movie "Gaslight" was based on, this is the production to see! You may know "who" does it... but what keeps you guessing in this story of unfolding psychological terror are the whys and hows.

A diabolical killer... lost rubies... a charming, insistently persistent detective... mysterious footsteps and light shifts... locked drawers and rooms... secrets... intrigue... all part of an edge-of-your-seat mystery that keeps the audience in suspense until the end. To give away the plot is a crime in itself... Bellla Manningham may be losing her mind... and her husband may be a killer enacting a plot to slowly drive her insane - or is he?

Directed by Alexander Kulcsar, "Angel Street" features sensational performances by Peter Wood, Ann Kinner, Fred Tisch, Ruth Anne Baumgartner and Sarah Smegal, - charming, beguiling, vulnerable, saucy, funny, stoic, villainous, duplicitous... - with cameo appearances by Bob Lasprogato and Al Toth. Jack and BElla Manningham's world on Angel Street stays with you long after the final glow of the gas light...

Westport Community Theatre at Westport Town Hall, 110 Myrtle Avenue, Westport.
