Spine:
* The spine of the play is “To Survive” each family member is trying to move on
and survive in their own way, shape, and form.
Controversy:
*David Lindsay-Abaire had said the reason he wrote the play Rabbit Hole was because
one of his teachers at Julliard had told him to write about something that scared him.
Being a father himself he couldn’t think of anything scarier than losing one of his
children. Many attended the show because they knew of the subject matter and were
intrigued while others stumbled into it by accident and had no idea what they were
getting themselves into.
