Eight months after the accidental death of their four-year-old son, Becca and Howie are struggling to return to their daily lives. When Becca’s younger and perpetually troubled sister Izzy announces that she is pregnant, the couple’s differing styles of grieving are thrown into sharp relief, as Becca’s desire to escape the constant reminders of her son clash with Howie’s attempts to hang on to details of their little boy’s past. Alternately sad and funny, Rabbit Hole is a deeply human look at one family’s attempts to come to terms with the impossible and emerge stronger than before. David Lindsay-Abaire’s Rabbit Hole was awarded the 2007 Pulitzer Prize for Drama.
