HARVEY - by Mary Chase

Bletchingley Players were pleased to present “Harvey” a Pulitzer Prize Winning play made famous when it was turned into a film starring James Stewart.

“Elwood lives in a surreal world with his imaginary friend, much to the consternation of his long-suffering sister, Veta, and niece, Myrtle Mae who are finding it increasingly difficult living with the eccentric Elwood.      Something has got to be done! But what?”

Harvey, by Mary Chase, Harvey is a Pulitzer Prize winning play made famous when it was turned into a film starring James Stewart.  Ithas endeared generations of audiences with the story of the amiable Elwood P Dowd and his best friend Harvey, a huge white rabbit which only he can see.

Harvey was directed by Liz Tomlin whose previous productions include  “On Golden Pond”, “Pygmalion” and the UK amateur premier of “The Graduate.

This very funny play ran May 16th-18th 2019 at Bletchingley Village Hall - nightly at 7.30.
