Description
One of the longest running comedies in Broadway and West End history, Harvey has endeared generations of audiences with the relationship of the amiable Elwood P Dowd and his best friend, the 6’1” tall white rabbit which only he can see. Elwood’s family are finally driven to committing him into Chumley’s Rest - home for the mentally disturbed, and here the fun really starts when Doctor Chumley becomes convinced he, too can see Harvey and, believing that the rabbit is a spirit of good fortune, attempts to charm him away from Elwood. The madness is catching as everybody soon believes that Harvey is as large as life. A true classic of modern theatre.
