This Pulitzer Prize-winner inspired the 1950 film of the same name.

Siblings often have spats, but when one claims a tall, invisible rabbit is his best friend, it can truly tax the family ties. Just how far a sister will go to keep her brother and his big eared white friend out of the public eye is the plot of the American comedy classic "Harvey." Presented as Possum Point Players' winter dinner theatre, "Harvey" opens Friday, Jan. 29.

Milwaukee Repertory Theater's (The Rep) Artistic Intern Ensemble presents its annual one-of-a-kind short-play festival, Rep Lab, returning for its fifth season to the intimate Stiemke Studio from April 10 - 13, 2015. Due to popular demand, extra performances were added this season and will feature everything from comedy to drama to devised work.

Mysterious circumstances and the inexplicable spirit of a six feet tall white rabbit revisit the Milwaukee Repertory Theater's exquisite 70th anniversary production of Harvey. Mary Chase's Pulitzer Prize-winning tale of Ellwood P. Dowd, a man who imagines the rabbit named Harvery is his best friend, unfolds on an elegant double turntable stage designed by Dan Conroy, a sight to delight any audience. The eloquent production humorously explores on a complex level what makes life worth living. Perhaps Ellwood's own words succinctly crystallize that premise: 'You must be oh so smart, or oh so pleasant. For years I was smart, and than I chose pleasant.'

The Pulitzer Prize winning comedy, Harvey, by Mary Chase opens tonight, January 10, at Vagabond Players and runs weekends through February 9. This beloved classic is directed by Sherrionne Brown. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast in action below!
