Description
Susan, a young college student has been spotted with her date at a restaurant by an older couple. They tell her Susan that she looks exactly like Veronica, a woman who died many years ago, and now her sister is dying and wants to see her one more time, refusing to believe Veronica is dead. Susan is enticed to impersonate Veronica, only to find herself locked in the role and in Veronica’s room. Is it 1973, as Susan believes...or 1935?
Veronica’s Room is by playwright Ira Levin, who died on November 12, 2007 of a heart attack. Mr. Levin is best known as the author of Rosemary’s Baby, The Boys from Brazil, The Stepford Wives, and Deathtrap. Because the one-year anniversary of Mr. Levin’s death occurs during the run of Veronica’s Room, Rover Dramawerks will be dedicating the run of this show to his memory.
Pay-what-you-can preview on Thursday, October 30. Purchase tickets online or by calling 972-849-0358.
