CHATHAM PLAYERS TO PRESENT “RABBIT HOLE” OCTOBER 1-16, 2010

CCP Script Logo Chatham Community Players are a community theater group that has consistently produced professional caliber plays! And they don’t stick to the usual community theater fare; lately, they’ve been delving into plays with an edge, plays that will make you think and have you talking about them afterwards over coffee. Their first production is an astonishing play, sad and funny at the same time. Call now for tickets. The little black box theater holds about 100 patrons.


RabbitHoleFlyer cpp WHEN: October 1–16, Fridays & Saturdays at 8 PM; Sunday, October 10, at 3 PM
WHERE: Chatham Playhouse, 23 N. Passaic Avenue, Chatham
TICKETS: $20 for adults and $18 for youth/seniors

The Chatham Community Players (CCP) will kick off their 89th Season by presenting the Pulitzer Prize-winning Rabbit Hole by David Lindsay-Abaire.  Bob Pridham, known to Chatham Playhouse audiences for directing gems like The Graduate, How I Learned To Drive and Side Man, returns as director.

Rabbit Hole focuses on Becca and Howie, a couple trying to cope after a recent accident has irrevocably changed their family. This entertaining and satisfying play explores the different manifestations of grief for the couple and their family. Despite its heavy subject matter, Lindsay-Abaire's play is a balance of comedic moments with the serious themes. Rabbit Hole charts their bittersweet search for comfort in the darkest of places and for a path that will lead them back into the light of day.


The exciting cast includes Sarah Pharaon (Maplewood) as Becca , Tara Cioletti (Wayne) as Izzy , Rick Holloway (NYC) as Howie , Kris Andrews (Maplewood ) as Nat and McCauley Davis (Glen Rock) as Jason.
