It’s been a long time coming, but today I finally get to unveil the Rabbit Room’s newest program: Rabbit Room Theatre. And on June 30th, 2022, we will launch headlong into our fresh, newly-imagined production of Corrie Ten Boom’s The Hiding Place.
I initially adapted Corrie’s book for the stage back in 2019 and it premiered at the George Theater in Houston (you can read the Broadway World review of that production here). But in the past couple of years, the play has undergone significant changes and revisions through collaboration and workshopping with the Nashville theatre community. We’re confident that the play is now better than ever, and we can’t wait to show it to all of you.
Rabbit Room Theatre is proud to be partnering with Matt Logan Productions to bring the Ten Boom story to life. I’ve worked with Matt on a number of past productions and if you’re familiar with Studio Tenn, you’ll recognize his work from a HUGE number of their past shows. He’s a visionary director and designer and I’m thrilled to be working with him again on this story.
We’ll have full information, casting, photos, trailers, behind the scenes material, and who knows what else in the coming weeks. But for now, mark your calendars. You’re invited to a night at the theater.
Tickets go on sale soon. Click the button below if you’d like to be notified when they do (along with other theatre-related news).
Pete Peterson is the author of the Revolutionary War adventure The Fiddler’s Gun and its sequel Fiddler’s Green.

@jacobHow great! I was so incredibly happy to read these news!
Sometimes I missed theatre among all these other art forms in talkings in the Rabbit Room. But suddenly the rabbit scampers around the corner and jumps straight into the spotlight… Wonderful!

I saw this and I am going to take my parents and my family. Love the Hiding Place! Any suggestions about how younger children might do at this performance (I’m thinking of middle elementary) with the content?
