HARVEY

HARVEY

Playing in the Long Beach Playhouse’s Mainstage Theater

April 4 – May 2, 2026

By Mary Chase

In this popular comedy from the golden age of Broadway, the kindly Elwood P. Dowd insists on including his friend Harvey in all of his sister Veta’s social gatherings. Trouble is, Harvey is an imaginary, six-and-a-half-foot-tall rabbit. To avoid further family embarrassment, Veta decides to have Elwood committed to a sanitarium. Yet her frantic explanations of the situation to the doctors get her mistakenly committed instead of her mild-mannered brother. When Elwood arrives at the sanitarium looking for Harvey, hilarity ensues in this gentle comedy about the acceptance of the ones we love and the fact that the truth can’t always be “seen.”
