"HARVEY" to be Seen at Love Street Playhouse

If ol' Peter Cottontail don't hop down the bunny trail to your house this Easter maybe you can see "Harvey" at Woodland's Love Street Playhouse.

The play will run from April 5 through April 21, 7:30 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays and at 2 p.m. Sundays.

When Elwood P. Dowd starts to introduce his imaginary friend, Harvey, a 6 ft rabbit, to guests at a society party, his sister, Veta, has seen as much of his eccentric behavior as she can tolerate.

She decides to have him committed to a sanitarium to spare her daughter, Myrtle Mae, and the family from future embarrassment. Problems arise, however, when Veta herself is mistakenly assumed to be on the verge of lunacy when she explains to Dr. Sanderson that years of living with Elwood's hallucination have caused her to see Harvey also. The doctor commits Veta instead of Elwood, but when the truth comes out, the search is on for Elwood and his invisible companion.

"Harvey" questions what it is to be insane, normal and otherwise odd. It has moments of humor and moments that will cause you to think.

Tickets available online at www.lovestreetplayhouse.com
