Written by David Lindsay-Abaire and directed by Nick Vause
Becca and Howie Corbett are a happy suburban couple with everything they could possibly want, a beautiful home, good jobs, great friends, their dog Taz and their young son, Danny. Suddenly, a life-shattering event turns their world upside down and they start to drift perilously apart. "Rabbit Hole" charts their bittersweet search for comfort in the darkest of places and for a path that will lead them back into the light of day . . .
"Rabbit Hole" is a Pulitzer Prize winning drama by the highly regarded American dramatist, David Lindsay Abaire. It was a successful Hollywood movie starring Nicole Kidman in 2010 and had a sell-out run at the Hampstead Theatre in 2016. This is a compelling and beautifully written play, filled with a distinctive wit and grace, in which grief eventually gives way to love and hope. . .
This play has adult content and is not suitable for younger audience members.
This amateur production of "Rabbit Hole" is presented by special arrangement with Broadway Licensing, LLC, servicing the Dramatists Play Service collection (www.dramatists.com).

In Conversation with the Cast
The characters in the play are fascinating and compelling. They are not afraid to let rip when they need to, which makes for explosive drama. But amongst these tensions there are also moments of quiet reflection and intimacy, and of humour too.
