Cast Jenna Innes was incredible as Veronica Sawyer. She had bags of charisma and her mix of both comical and evil personas was performed effortlessly.

He was so natural that you would believe that he is a criminal in front of your eyes. The chemistry between Veronica (Jenna Innes) and JD (Jacob Fowler) was infectious to watch and they were a great partnership on stage. Verity Thompson was strong as Heather Chandler.
