"DeSotelle directs this Pulitzer Prize-winning play...bringing an extremely talented and invested cast/crew to tell this heartbreaking story...So engrossed are we in what's on stage, it becomes very difficult to turn away...An absolutely beautiful production...Well-crafted...Each scene is a careful breakdown of these characters' minds taken tangible shape...A wonderful cast and crew make this production of ‘Rabbit Hole’ something truly special.”

"The company accomplishes the effect of having the audience act as a literal fourth wall with the very clever and detailed scenic design of Matt Imhoff. It is not often that the feeling of walking into someone’s house can be achieved in a tight, black box theater, but the director and his production staff accomplish just that...The cast expertly maneuvers through the complex emotions that follow a tragedy so that the audience is allowed a respite."
