BroadwayWorld.com: Rabbit Hole

RH1I could go on and on about how the design elements are among the most professional and refined I’ve seen at Keegan – particularly 4Point Design Collective’s set that perfectly captures an upper-middle class modern house in the New York City suburbs – but let’s just get to the heart of what makes this show one to see.

She’s always present and effective even in the many silent moments. Likewise, her chemistry with fellow company members – a necessity in a family-centric drama – makes her portrayal all the more believable and resonant.
