Theatre IV's “The Velveteen Rabbit” does a bunny proud. It wouldn't exactly be unexpected for a theater company to skimp on a children's production, particularly one aimed at the 8 and younger crowd.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees C (175 degrees C). Remove the rabbit from the refrigerator. Cut off the bacon rind and discard then cut the bacon into ¼ x ½ inch (5 mm x 1 cm) dice.
