Backstage for Rabbit Island
Mel House gives Barbara spice and spark and is especially funny when Barbara suddenly starts screaming curses at her radically feminist mother, who isn’t even onstage.
NYTheatre for Rabbit Island
Ethan Angelica (Alex), Carrie Heitman (Karen), Mel House (Barbara), and Joel Nagle (Dr. Bob) all deliver strong, committed performances.
The Happiest Medium for Rabbit Island
. . . Mel House gives us a Barbara who is more than simply an in-your-face performance artist slash burlesque dancer slash impetuous crazy girlfriend. House gives Barbara the depth of a woman who has lived in a city that invites softer spirits to be squashed, so she has toughed up on the outside to protect what she has to offer on the inside.

Producer Mel House also brings an engaging charm to Polly Hyde, the wiser-than-she-acts trophy wife.
