Description
"David Lindsay-Abaire has crafted a drama that's not just a departure but a revelation--an intensely emotional examination of grief, laced with wit, insightfulness, compassion and searing honesty." -David Rooney, Variety "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 David Lindsay-Abaire is the Pulitzer-winning author of Rabbit Hole, which was made into a feature film. He is the author of Good People, Fuddy Meers, Wonder of the World, A Devil Inside and Kimberly Akimbo, as well as the book and lyrics to Shrek the Musical. He has written the screenplays for Rabbit Hole, Rise of the Guardians and Oz: The Great and Powerful. Born in South Boston, he now lives in Brooklyn.

"A startling, heartfelt and potent new play. Rabbit Hole is a remarkable, affecting redirection of Lindsay-Abaire's considerable talent." -Michael Kuchwara, Associated Press "Rabbit Hole is a sensitive drama with the well-observed poignancy of a memorable short story, captured with the blinkered belief of Lindsay-Abaire's grief-stricken heart." -Charles McNulty, Los Angeles Times "Grade: A! A transcendent and deeply affecting new play, which shifts perfectly from hilarity to grief." -Whitney Pastorek, Entertainment Weekly "Rabbit Hole presents a tragedy and its consequences with utter candor, and without sentimentality. The dialogue is most impressive for capturing the awkwardness and pain of thinking people faced with an unthinkable situation--and eventually, their capacity for survival, and even hope." -Elyssa Gardner, USA Today "A perceptive and poignant study in the day-to-day aches of bereavement: problems with personal intimacy, the uneasy friends who don't call, the emptiness in a house packed with reminders...Heartbreaking in its theme and details, Rabbit Hole is a beautifully crafted work of great sensitivity." -Michael Sommers, Star-Ledger "Gut-wrenching...Rabbit Hole's script absolutely deserved its Pulitzer win: the characters' words sound ripped from real life while maintaining layers of nuance. " -Chicago Theater Beat "...a story that's remarkably perceptive, astute and unfailingly, if brutally, honest." -OC Register
