Heritage Theatre: Harvey

Harvey is the story of Mr. Elwood P. Dowd and his presumably imaginary friend, a six-and-half foot tall rabbit named Harvey. When Elwood introduces Harvey to guests at a society garden party being held by his sister Veta Simmons and her daughter Myrtle Mae Simmons, they have had as much of his nonsense as they can take. Veta, in attempting to have Elwood committed and wanting to spare her daughter from any further embarrassment, is committed herself by the doctors of Chumley’s Rest Home feeling that she cannot function in society in her current emotional state. Comedy ensues as Elwood’s family and the doctors try to find Elwood and resolve this matter once and for all. But with all of this ado what does Harvey think of the situation and how will he help set things right?
