Cut-glass absurdist comedy with a modern twist; this story of dislocation and heroin abuse is perfectly performed by the company. The story clips along at a steady pace, and despite a plot which stretches the bounds of credibility, the cast never lets things get out of hand to a point where the characters are not, in their own warped ways, believable. Clear focus from the director and full-throttle performances by the un-self-conscious cast mean that for those audiences who enjoy verbal acrobatics (the dialogue reads like an updated, hip hop version of Anthony Burgess' Nasdat), Rabbit might be one of the most surprising successes of the Fringe thus far.
