The Alumnae Theatre Company is proud to present our season finale Mainstage show of the 2013-2014 season: Rabbit Hole, by David Lindsay-Abaire. The current production is directed by Paul Hardy, who also directed Alumnae’s critically acclaimed production of Oscar Wilde’s A Woman of No Importance in the 2012-2013 season.
David Lindsay-Abaire's play won the 2007 Pulitzer Prize for Drama, and he adapted it into a critically-acclaimed film (directed by John Cameron Mitchell, starring Nicole Kidman and Aaron Eckhart) in 2010.
Becca and Howie Corbett have everything a family could want, until a life-shattering accident turns their world upside down and leaves the couple perilously adrift. Rabbit Hole charts their bittersweet search for comfort in the darkest of places and for a path into the light of day.
"David Lindsay-Abaire has crafted a drama that's not just a departure but a revelation—an intensely emotional examination of grief, laced with wit, insightfulness, compassion and searing honesty." —Variety.
RABBIT HOLE stars local theatre scene regular Cameron Johnston as Howie; classical theatre mainstay Christopher Manousos in the role of Jason; the award winning actress, Shelia Russell will be gracing the stage in the role of Nat; Joanne Sarazen will be playing the part of Izzy in her third production with Alumnae; and Paula Schultz will be returning to the Alumnae Mainstage once more in the part of Becca.
The show is staged managed by Madison Kalbhenn, with assistance from Emily Costa and Carina Cojeen. The set was designed by Jacqueline Costa. Sound design for Rabbit Hole is by Angus Barlow. Costumes for the production were designed by Sara Brzozowski. The show is produced by Brenda Darling and Francine Dick.
