Review/Comment
Becca and Howie Corbett have everything a family could want until that one day when a random accident forever shatters their calm suburban existence and turns their world upside-down. When things that used to make sense now make no sense at all, the Corbetts do their best to come together as a family despite their differences, with varying results.
Honest and humorous, David Lindsay-Abaire’s deeply affecting winner of the 2007 Pulitzer Prize reaffirms the power of the human spirit and its indomitable ability to survive and find hope.

Given recent events here in Palo Alto, the timeliness for the run of this show is almost eerie. And I am sure that the subject matter, the accidental death of a five-year-old boy, is more than some theatre-goers can bear, and that is really too bad. The Rabbit Hole characters deal with their grief over the loss of Danny, their child/grandchild/nephew, in very different ways, and each feels remarkably true. The direction is first-rate, the individual performances compelling, and the play is haunting. This production will stay with me for a long time. Collapse

It took a while for me to ease into this play which I felt was a well written piece, that reveals relationships and circumstances slowly and methodically. Sevreal technical elements distracted me though (random outside lighting that shifted from Purple to Orange to white, lack of costume changes making it hard to place time of year or other chronology except when the script specifically called it out) from some of the solid acting moments. The husband and wife chemistry wasn't totally believable to me, even given the strained, tenuous plot circumstances, but some good moments of anger, grief, and exhaustion. Overall a moving play, that may gel and be even more so as the run goes on. Certainly anyone with children may find this to be more emotional than those that do not. Collapse
