'Veronica's Room' at Westfield Community Players

Westfield Community Players' production of "Veronica's Room," a chilling mystery thriller by "Rosemary's Baby" author Ira Levin, will open this May.

Students Susan and Larry find themselves as guests at the Brabissant mansion, enticed there by its dissolute caretakers, the lonely Mackeys. Struck by Susan's strong resemblance to Veronica Brabissant, the long-dead daughter of the family for whom they work, the Mackeys persuade her to briefly impersonate Veronica to solace the only living Brabissant, her addled sister who believes Veronica alive. Once dressed in Veronica's clothes, Susan finds herself locked in the role and locked in Veronica's room. Or is she Veronica, in 1935, pretending to be an imaginary Susan?

The show opens at 8 p.m. May 7 and runs at the same time May 13, 14 and 21 and at 2 p.m. May 22. The show features Janice Lynn, Victor Gallo, Kelly Kline, and Ross Pohling. It is directed by Brian Remo and produced by Jessica Foerst.

Tickets cost $20 per adult and $10 per student or military personnel.
