SUMMARY:HARVEY
DESCRIPTION:HARVEY\nPlaying in the Long Beach Playhouse’s Mainstage Theater\nApril 4 – May 2\, 2026\nBy Mary Chase\nDirected by Bob Fetes\nIn 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.” \nPURCHASE YOUR TICKETS HERE:\nCHOOSE YOUR DATE:\nTHIS PRODUCTION CLOSED MAY 2\, 2026 \n  \nAGE LIMIT \nAs a courtesy to our patrons\, it is the policy of the theatre not to admit children under the age of 5.
