DIRECTOR’S NOTE

Rabbit Hole is a masterful portrait of grief and how people grieve in different ways. In an earlier time, it might have been characterized as "kitchen-sink" drama for its brutal honesty. Certainly, it is a departure for David Lindsay-Abaire from his somewhat whimsical and grotesque earlier works such as Fuddy Meers and Kimberly Akimbo. Of course, the title Rabbit Hole may seem curious as it conjures up allusions to Alice In Wonderland, wherein Alice falls down the rabbit hole and enters a parallel universe. But it makes sense when we see that Becca finds comfort in imagining the possibility that versions of her and Danny still exist in some parallel universe and in a happier time before the accident which tore them apart.
