When the affable Elwood P. Dowd introduces his invisible friend – an exceedingly tall rabbit named Harvey – to guests at a high society party, his sister Veta can no longer tolerate his eccentricities. She decides to have Elwood committed to spare her family from future embarrassment, sparking a wild romp of misunderstandings and mishaps. As the line between who is sane and who is not starts to blur, the cost of conformity comes into sharp relief. This tender comedy explores the tension between society's expectations and a family's bond.
Directed by People's Light Producing Director Molly Rosa Houlahan, this production stars Company Artist David M. Lutken as Elwood. Harvey was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for Drama and was adapted for the screen in the famous film starring Jimmy Stewart and Josephine Hull.
