July 11, 2006 > Harvey

by Mary Galde

Broadway West Theatre presents "Harvey" by Mary Chase. When Elwood P. Dowd introduces his imaginary friend, Harvey (a six-and-a-half-foot pooka), to the guests at a society party, his sister, Veta, weary of his eccentric behavior, tries to have him committed to a sanitarium. Then the fun begins!

Performance times are 8 p.m. on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays. There are three Sunday matinees. The two on July 30 and Aug. 6 begin with continental brunch (included in price of ticket) at 12:15 p.m. with the show starting at 1 p.m. The third performance, Aug. 13, starts at 1 p.m. with English tea, sandwiches and scones during intermission (also included in price of ticket).

Tickets are $20 general admission and $15 for students and seniors. Thursday performances are $15 for everyone. Sunday performances are $20 for everyone. All prices include refreshments.

Two preview showings will be held on Wednesday and Thursday, July 19 and 20 at 8 p.m. Preview tickets are $5.
