Theater im OP: Rabbit Hole

The English Drama Workshop presents:

Rabbit Hole – by David Lindsay-Abaire

Becca and Howie Corbett are going through the unthinkable: They have recently lost their child in a car accident. Neither of them know how to handle their grief, and what to make of the various reactions from friends and family. Becca’s immature sister and doting mother are barely any help. Things get even more heated when the at-fault car driver suddenly appears on the Corbett’s doorstep.

David Lindsay-Abaire’s 2006 play about grief and coping (or lack thereof) won the 2007 Pulitzer Prize for Drama as well as several Tony Award nominations.
Though the play includes tragedy as a main theme, it incorporates a good bit of comedy through biting dialogues and absurd situations, while at no point making light of the issues it portrays.
