“A captivating psychological thriller… this is a
show that will engage your brain.” – League of Cincinnati Theatres
“Streamlined… compelling entertainment… A portrait of courage in the face of evil… Gaslight is a psychological thriller, but there are frequent moments of levity… There could hardly be a more fitting time for a play entitled Gaslight, given that we are now living in a world that asks us to bend reality to suit our own cultural and political beliefs rather than to believe what we see and hear with our own eyes and ears.” – Theater Mirror
“Mr. Dietz’s interpretation of the story is an excellent one. He has managed to make it more concise without losing the impact of the story itself… While the original text has been around since the 1930s, Gaslight remains timeless for two very different reasons: in many ways, its message was very much ahead of its time and, unfortunately, psychological abuse still exists. Fortunately, Mr. Dietz’s script has enough light in this dark tale to pull us out of the shadows rather adeptly as we are reminded there is hope in the most bleak of hours.” – Katrina Reynolds, League of Cincinnati Theatres
“A captivating psychological thriller… Transforming the 1938 play by Patrick Hamilton (and the acclaimed 1940 movie of the same name), playwright Steven Dietz has crafted a revealing look at power dynamics of a marriage and how far someone would go for personal gain… this is a show that will engage your brain.” – Liz Eichler, League of Cincinnati Theatres
