Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

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 aftertragedy, it captures "the awkwardness and pain of thinking people faced with an unthinkable situation — and eventually, their capacity for survival" (USA Today).

Review:

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

Review:

"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
