Congrats to David Lindsay-Abaire for winning the 2007 Pulitzer Prize for drama for "Rabbit Hole."

Thankfully, the show has played L.A. well before this honor was bestowed. "Rabbit Hole" opened the season at the Geffen Playhouse last September in a K-A production staring Amy Ryan, Tate Donovan and Joyce Van Patten. Carolyn Cantor directed.

We'll be seeing plenty of Linsday-Abaire's name in the months upcoming. The musical "High Fidelity" opened and closed rather unceremoniously, and the playwright is working on a musical adaptation of, gulp, "Shrek."

He's also writing a screenplay of "Rabbit Hole" which, and I'm just guessing here, will end up on TV or cable over the big screen. The play is about two parents coping with the death of their child.

Wonder which movie version will see the light of day first: "Rabbit Hole" or the 2004-2005 Pulitzer winner -- John Patrick Shanley's "Doubt" _ which Shanley will direct.

The last Pulitzer winning play to become a movie, by the way was, "Proof" which took the prize in 2000-2001.
