ABOUT THE PLAY:
“Harvey,” the 1945 Pulitzer Prize-winning comedy by Mary Chase, is about a perfect gentleman, Elwood P. Dowd, and his best friend, Harvey -- a pooka, who is a six-and-a-half-foot tall invisible rabbit. When Elwood begins introducing Harvey around town, his embarrassed sister, Veta Louise, and her daughter, Myrtle Mae, determine to commit Elwood to a sanitarium. A mistake is made, and the doctors mistakenly commit Veta into the sanitarium rather than Elwood. What ensues is a comedy of errors resulting in mistaken identities, misdiagnoses, and a search for the elusive, invisible rabbit that reminds us to embrace the quirks that make us special.
“HARVEY is presented by special arrangement with Broadway Licensing, LLC, servicing the Dramatists Play Service collection. (www.dramatists.com)”
With the exception of Mrs. Johnson, all roles are open.
