Harvey

"Harvey," a whimsical comedy written by Mary Chase in 1944, centers around the charmingly eccentric Elwood P. Dowd, who insists on introducing his invisible friend, Harvey, a six-foot-tall rabbit, to everyone he meets. Set in a small town, the play delves into themes of imagination, acceptance, and the nature of sanity, as Elwood's unwavering belief in Harvey challenges societal norms and expectations. Through a series of humorous and poignant interactions with his family and the local community, the play invites audiences to reflect on the value of friendship, the importance of embracing differences, and the fine line between reality and imagination. With its endearing characters and insightful commentary, "Harvey" remains a beloved classic that resonates with audiences of all ages.

Directed by Katie Meuse

Harvey will be presented in April 2026

The Crucible

Reviews

Producer Erin Pelikhov

Asst Director Andrew Hankinson

The Crucible by American playwright Arthur Miller, centers on the Salem witch trials of 1692, during which a group of girls accuse local citizens of witchcraft. Soon others join these accusers. This hysteria is fueled by personal grudges and social inequities and a palpable belief that the devil was real. The play is a powerful exploration of that story and the relationships among the characters. But it also serves as an allegory for “witchhunts” occurring at any time or place.

Thank you to our wonderful patrons for making this production so successful.
