Mission Statement
Gaslight Theatre Company’s mission is to create impactful, innovative and high-quality theatre that enriches the lives of our artists and community.
Gaslight Theatre Company | Bold plays & local voices on stage in Wilkes-Barre
Gaslight Theatre Company in Wilkes-Barre has delivered engaging, thoughtful productions to local audiences since 2003. This nonprofit brings both classical works and lesser-produced contemporary plays to the stage, creating space for artistic exploration and dialogue. Performances are held at George P. Maffei II Theatre at King’s College, welcoming audiences into bold theatrical experiences.
Celebrating Original Work
In addition to established works, Gaslight supports new voices through its Playroom series—a showcase of one-act plays by local playwrights. Since its founding, the company has brought more than 50 original pieces to the stage, championing creativity and giving regional writers the opportunity to see their stories come to life.
Bringing Theatre to the Community
As a volunteer-driven, artist-run company, Gaslight hosts concerts, plays and events that reflect and inspire the community it serves. Each season features a range of performances that invite dialogue, challenge ideas and bring people together in shared artistic experience.
Gaslight Theatre Company connects Wilkes-Barre audiences with dynamic performances and fresh creative voices through bold, meaningful theater.
