Who gets to tell the story?
“A heart-wrenching, guttural, cathartic, masterpiece. This is a perfect play for our moment, an urgent response to a time of crisis and a battle cry in the face of a terrifying world.” -Variety

“This winsome comedy about a lovable eccentric can cast a satisfying spell.” – The New York Times
Harvey, the classic Pulitzer Prize-winning Broadway and Hollywood comedy, pulls laughter out of the hat at every turn. Elwood P.

When Elwood starts to introduce his friend to guests at a society party, his sister Veta can’t take it anymore. In order to save the family’s social reputation, Elwood’s sister takes him to the local sanatorium. But when the doctor mistakenly commits his anxiety-ridden sister, Elwood and Harvey slip out of the hospital unbothered, setting off a hilarious whirlwind of confusion and chaos as everyone in town tries to catch a man and his invisible rabbit!
