Harvey

“I wrestled with reality for forty years, and I am happy  to state that I finally won out over it.”

Everyone wants to meet Elwood Dowd and his friend Harvey. When they enter a room, strangers soon become friends and people want to share a drink with them. But Harvey is a six-foot invisible rabbit and Elwood’s sister wants him gone. The question is – does the world need another "normal" chap, or more Harveys? A new look at this Pulitzer Prize-winning play by Mary Chase, made famous by Jimmy Stewart’s portrayal of the loveable Elwood Dowd in the 1950 film .

“Joe Ziegler has given us beautiful, nuanced productions of shows such as The Heiress and Ah, Wilderness. He is the perfect choice then, to deliver this treasured piece of Americana which has so many delightful surprises up its sleeve.” JM

 

This play is recommended for ages 12+.


Running time is approximately 2 hours and 20 minutes including one intermission.
