About the Play
 
Elwood P. Dowd is a wonderful 47-year old man; happy, kind, generous, and friendly.  He also has something that his sister can't stand: a 6 1/2 foot tall rabbit named Harvey.  Feeling ridiculed in 'polite society' for the last time, Elwood's sister Veta commits Elwood to a mental institution in hopes of ridding herself of Harvey forever.  Comic misdirection ensues, leading Veta to be institutionalized instead!  Who is Harvey?  Is Harvey real?  Is it better to be happy or normal?  And just how useful is it to be 'normal' anyways?  All these questions and more will be answered in "Harvey!"
 
(This play would later be made into an Oscar-winning movie of the same name.)
