WAXAHACHIE COMMUNITY THEATRE PRESENTS "HARVEY"
Waxahachie Community Theatre presents dinner theatre performances of the Pulitzer Prize-winning play, "Harvey." This delightful comedy, written by Mary Chase, tells the story of Elwood P. Dowd and his invisible friend, Harvey, a six-foot-tall white rabbit. Elwood’s sister, Veta, decides to have him committed to a sanitarium to spare their family from embarrassment. Problems arise when Veta herself is mistakenly assumed to be on the verge of lunacy when she explains to doctors that years of living with Elwood’s hallucination have caused her to see Harvey also! The ensuing comedy of errors will have you laughing at the antics of all parties involved. The show is directed by Kasi Jones and features Clark Hackney as Elwood, Joan Tyler as Veta, Jerry Ellis as Dr. Chumley, and Ashley Cieri as Myrtle Mae. Other cast members are LaVonda Black, Brian Caudell, Gary Clark, Stacee Johnson, Josh Kelly, Albert Love, Kelly Pieterse, and Randy Preston, Dinner theatre shows are Friday and Saturday, February 10 and 11 at 6:30 PM, and Sunday, February 12 at 1:30 PM.
