"A beautifully observed new play blessed with David Lindsay-Abaire's customary grace and wit." -Ben Brantley,
New York Times "With
Rabbit Hole, David Lindsay-Abaire has crafted the most serious, simply told work of his career--a painstakingly beautiful, dramatically resourceful, exquisitely human new play."
-Backstage A story of loss, heartbreak and forgiveness--told through daily moments and emotional hurdles--as a family moves on after the accidental death of their 4-year-old. After a critically acclaimed Broadway premier and successful film adaptation (starring Nicole Kidman, Aaron Eckhart, and Diane West),
Rabbit Hole has been hailed as an artistic breakthrough for the highly regarded Lindsay-Abaire. A drama of what comes after tragedy, it captures "the awkwardness and pain of thinking people faced with an unthinkable situation--and eventually, their capacity for survival." -USA Today
