NEON GASLIGHT — STAGED READING
Saturday, July 25
2:00 - 4:00 pm
Manor Park Memorial Hall
11 Briscoe Street West
Join us for a staged reading of "Neon Gaslight", an adaptation by Melissa Parker inspired by Patrick Hamilton’s classic psychological thriller "Gaslight", developed in collaboration with Odesa Company.
Set against the neon glow and cultural backdrop of the 1980s, "Neon Gaslight" explores manipulation, control, domestic abuse, memory and the slow unraveling of truth inside a seemingly perfect household. Darkly funny, unsettling and painfully relevant, this new adaptation reimagines the story for a modern audience while examining the devastating effects of emotional abuse and gaslighting.
CAST
Bella — Julianna Goertzen
Jack — Sam Didi
Liz — Izzy Siebert
Nan — Tessa Dang
Mrs. Rough — Robin Shugar-Pollock
Mr. Rough — Dan Curtis
Entry to the staged reading will be by donation, with proceeds supporting the Women’s Rural Resource Centre.
Following the reading, audiences are invited to stay for a feedback and discussion session as the creative team continues developing the script toward a full production planned for 2027.
Whether you love theatre, psychological thrillers, new Canadian works, or supporting conversations around women’s experiences and abuse awareness, we invite you to be part of this important stage in the creative process.
