Críticas:

"A startling, heartfelt and potent new play. Rabbit Hole is a remarkable, affecting redirection of Lindsay-Abaire's considerable talent." -Michael Kuchwara, Associated Press

"Rabbit Hole is a sensitive drama with the well-observed poignancy of a memorable short story, captured with the blinkered belief of Lindsay-Abaire's grief-stricken heart." -Charles McNulty, Los Angeles Times

"Grade: A! A transcendent and deeply affecting new play, which shifts perfectly from hilarity to grief." -Whitney Pastorek, Entertainment Weekly

"Rabbit Hole presents a tragedy and its consequences with utter candor, and without sentimentality. The dialogue is most impressive for capturing the awkwardness and pain of thinking people faced with an unthinkable situation--and eventually, their capacity for survival, and even hope." -Elyssa Gardner, USA Today

"A perceptive and poignant study in the day-to-day aches of bereavement: problems with personal intimacy, the uneasy friends who don't call, the emptiness in a house packed with reminders...Heartbreaking in its theme and details, Rabbit Hole is a beautifully crafted work of great sensitivity." -Michael Sommers, Star-Ledger

"Gut-wrenching...Rabbit Hole's script absolutely deserved its Pulitzer win: the characters' words sound ripped from real life while maintaining layers of nuance. " -Chicago Theater Beat

..".a story that's remarkably perceptive, astute and unfailingly, if brutally, honest." -OC Register

With Rabbit Hole, David Lindsay-Abaire has crafted the most serious, simply told work of his career a painstakingly beautiful, dramatically resourceful, exquisitely human new play.” Backstage

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 4-year-old.
