Rabbit Hole

“An intensely emotional examination of grief, laced with wit, insightfulness, compassion and searing honesty . . . an uncommonly affecting and absorbing play.”—Variety

“The sad, sweet release of Rabbit Hole lies precisely in the access it allows to the pain of others. . . . This anatomy of grief [taps] a reservoir of feelings common to anyone who has experienced the vacuum left by a death in the family.”—The New York Times

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 four-year-old. With a critically acclaimed Broadway premiere, featuring Cynthia Nixon and Tyne Daly, Rabbit Hole has been hailed as an artistic breakthrough for the highly regarded David 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 Linday-Abaire's off-beat comedy Fuddy Meers has received over 300 productions across the country and abroad (including London's West End), after its Off-Broadway premiere in 1999. Other plays include Wonder of the World and Kimberly Akimbo (LA Drama Critics Circle Award for Playwriting, three Garland Awards, the Kesselring Prize), which he is adapting for Dreamworks.
