“White Rabbit Red Rabbit” is its own Off-Broadway species. For this solo play by Iranian writer Nassim Soleimanpour, there’s no rehearsal, director or set. The performer gets the script as he or she steps on stage. Scary? You bet. Irresistible? Yes.
Ask producers Tom Kirdahy and Devlin Elliott, of Maberry Theatricals, who tell how they discovered the show and were determined to bring it to New York. The show runs on Monday night at the Westside Theatre. Up first, Nathan Lane on March 7. He’ll be followed by Whoopi Goldberg, Patrick Wilson and Brian Dennehy are on-board.
Waiting in the wings for a shot are George Takei and Donna Murphy. How often would those two go up for the same part? At a moment of #OscarsSoWhite, along comes this age-, gender-, race-defying production. Hello, #RabbitSoDiverse.
