Gaslight costume design by Ailsa Paterson, 2020 

Gaslight has the honour of not only being the first mainstage production to open the newly redeveloped Her Majesty’s Theatre in Adelaide, but also one of the first large-scale shows to open in a major Australian arts venue following the COVID-19 closures in March 2020.

Audiences, performances and production crew were very grateful to be back in the theatre, despite tough new COVID-19 safety measures such as spaced seating, capacity limits, no interval drinks and a raft of new backstage procedures.
