Artistic Director’s Note

“Hello, and welcome to Voodoo Theatre Company’s production of Rabbit Hole! Whether you’ve been with us all season or if this is your first performance with us, we want to say how pleased we are that you are here! Rabbit Hole is the second show of our inaugural season, and we couldn’t be happier to share it with you.

Rabbit Hole is an incredible story of love in the face of adversity and the trials that life sometimes/always throws at us. Big or small, there is something that everyone can take away from this play, and we hope that you are as touched by the story as we are.”

Patrick C. Kibbie
Artistic Director of Voodoo Theatre Company

Meet the Cast

  • Ali Lente

    as Becca

    Ali is excited to be taking on this play with this amazing team. Although she's usually on stage, she most recently had a blast assistant directing Gross Indecency with Patrick Kibbie (director) for Wasatch Theater Company. A Salt Lake City native, you may have seen Ali in some of the following roles:

    W — Lungs (Pinnacle Acting Co); Amsterdam — (Patrick Kibbie Co); Heather -- Hands on a Hardbody (Wasatch Theatre Co); Jenny -- You Got Older (WTC); Banquo -- Macbeth (Pinnacle Acting Co); Ruth -- Tribes (SLAC); Demetrius - Titus Andronicus (Pinnacle Acting Co); Mandy -- Time Stands Still (Pinnacle Acting Co); The Pilot -- Grounded (People Productions); Wynne -- Dinner (Wasatch Theatre Co); Becca -- Rabbit Hole (Utah Rep).

    Ali is an alumni of Westminster College and holds a BA in Arts Administration.

  • Aaron Ross

    as Howie

    Aaron is an Ogden-based actor and director who has been blessed to make weird, beautiful art through the intermountain west. Previous acting roles include She Loves Me (Kodaly), Caroline or Change (Stuart), and Marie Antoinette (Joseph). To me, theatre is a sincere attempt to communicate our humanity to one another. The world outside of ourselves is messy and often difficult to navigate, and so is the world that lives inside us. Theatre plots a course through those inner wilds and invites us to follow.

    More than anything, I am excited to collaborate with (and learn from) such an intimidating group of artists. Beyond that, Rabbit Hole is an earnest engagement with grief, which, in a time of so much collective grief, may be as timely as it is timeless.

  • Courtney Whittier

    as Izzy

    Courtney is a local actor whose passion lies in exploring her connection with community, especially through the arts. She has enjoyed working within the local film industry, but is excited for a new foray into theatre! In her free time, she writes, bakes, and occasionally practices law. I’m excited to play Izzy! I immediately connected with her character upon reading the script, and I can’t wait to find out what I have to learn by getting to know both her and myself a little better.

  • Nan Weber

    as Nat

    Nan received her BFA from the University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, and has a degree from Salt Lake Community College in Sign Language for theatre performance. Some of the performances she is proud of that she’s done in Utah include directing a performance of Ugo Betti’s “Crime on Goat Island” in Utah’s west desert; the role of Elder Jay in Ogden’s Good Theatre production of “The Christians;” Bubbie in Covey Theatre’s “Crossing Delancey;” and for Utah Arts Alliance the role of Danielle in “Home of Truth” which was performed in Allen Park. She is honored to be portraying Nat for this production!

  • Ethan Hernandez

    as Jason

    Ethan Hernandez grew up in Ogden, Utah, and is a graduate of the University of Utah’s Actor Training Program. His recent credits include Puffs (Oliver Rivers) with Voodoo Theatre Company and Gross Indecency (Taylor/Judge) with Wasatch Theatre Company. He is grateful for his friends and family and all of their continued support. Special thanks to Brianna. I'm excited to be part of Rabbit Hole because it is a very intimate story of how grief affects people in different ways and angles of the same loss. It explores how people can find reasons to blame themselves when presented with a tragic accident, looking to find reason and truth in something that seemingly makes no sense.

Director’s Note

“I love people and it’s an honor to be trusted with their stories. With Rabbit Hole, we open ourselves and trust the story of a family not so unfamiliar to any one of us. Don’t let the label of a “drama” frighten you away – our time together will be full of laughter, joy, understanding … and yes, you may feel something a little deeper stirring. None of us is composed of a single thing; we contain multitudes, and so does our little story of love and grief and family.

“I am of old and young, of the foolish as much as the wise,
Regardless of others, ever regardful of others,
Maternal as well as paternal, a child as well as a man,
Stuff’d with the stuff that is coarse and stuff’d with the stuff that is fine.”

— Walt Whitman
