The play

The Lexington County Arts Association proudly presents “Harvey” directed by Ripley Thames. This comical production runs November 6 through November 15 at Village Square Theater in Lexington. Friday and Saturday show times are at 7:30pm and Sundays at 3pm.

When Elwood P. Dowd starts to introduce his imaginary friend, Harvey, a six and a half foot 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. Problems arise, however, when Veta herself is mistakenly presumed to be on the verge of lunacy when she explains to the doctors that years of living with Elwood’s hallucinations have caused her to see Harvey also. The doctors commit Veta instead of Elwood , but when the truth comes out, the search is on for Elwood and his invisible companion. When he shows up at the sanitarium looking for his lost friend, Harvey, it seems that the mild-mannered Elwood’s elusion has had a strange influence on more than the doctors!

 
Village Square Theatre is located in Lexington just off Columbia Avenue (highway #378) at 105 Caughman Road, behind Firestone Auto Care.
