ANGEL STREET (GASLIGHT)
Xenia Area Community Theatre
Oct. 17-26
[Xenia]

Directed by Onyx Davis

Cast: Teri Garrnger as Mrs. Manningham, Brian Laughlin as Mr. Manningham, Dean Shipley as Rough, Katie Thorpe as Nancy & Cheryl Dern as Elizabeth

Angel Street tells the story of the Manninghams, who live on Angel Street in 19th century London. As the curtain rises, all appears to be the essence of Victorian tranquility. It is soon apparent, however, that Mr. Manningham, a suavely handsome man, is slowly driving his gentle, devoted wife, Bella, to the brink of insanity with an insinuating kindness that masks more sinister motives.
