This popular comedy classic brings Elwood P. Dowd and his invisible big white rabbit friend Harvey to the stage, creating uproarious chaos in his wake. Elwood's sister Veta, embarrassed by Elwood's delusion, tries to have him committed to the local sanitarium. Through a series of misunderstandings, however, Veta herself is mistakenly assumed to be on the verge of lunacy herself, causing Elwood to come valiantly to the rescue...with Harvey's help, of course!
