Veronica's Room
Written by Ira Levin
Directed by Dr. Sam Coleman
2004—2005 Season
Another clever thriller from the author of
Deathtrap and
Rosemary's Baby, this is a spider’s web, entwining fantasy and reality. Susan, a young college student, and a young man she has just met, are invited by an older couple to visit a nearby mansion. The couple are struck by Susan’s resemblance to the long-dead daughter of the house, and convince her to impersonate Veronica for a short time, to give solace to Veronica’s addled sister. Once dressed in Veronica’s clothes, however, Susan finds herself locked in the role—and in Veronica’s room—where things begin to go terribly wrong.
