Rabbit Hole
by David Lindsay-Abaire
Directed by Brendan Applegate

November 13-22, 2009

Read about RABBIT HOLE in the Jersey City Independent.

Winner of the 2007 Pulitzer Prize for Drama, David Lindsay-Abaire’s touching play follows a couple whose young son has accidentally been killed by a teenage driver. Efforts at closure are complicated by other family members’ need for attention, and by a visit from the young driver.

"A beautifully observed new play blessed with David Lindsay-Abaire's customary grace and wit. The sad, sweet release of RABBIT HOLE lies in its meticulously mapped empathy. " -Ben Brantley, The New York Times

The Pillowman
by Martin McDonagh
Directed by Billy Mitchell

February 19-28, 2010

Martin McDonagh’s award-winning — remarkably dark — black comedy is a spine-chilling story of fact versus fiction. A writer is arrested when children in his vicinity begin dying savagely, in ways resembling his stories. The interrogation includes his brother, two unpredictable investigators, and the telling of several stories which led to the writer’s arrest.

"Energizing…a blindingly bright black comedy…[what makes] the unsettling and exhilarating new play from Mr. McDonagh…so gripping as theater is how narrative art becomes the play's and the character's very life blood." -The New York Times
