Reached in and touched my heart!
On May 29,2012 I took my 21 yeaar old daughter to see Harvey for her birthday. She was more excited about Jim Parsons then the story. I on the other hand I LOVE Jimmy Steward and was very excited to see how the production would be. Well Mr. Parsons reached in and touched my heart with his preformance. Also the cast was awesome( Jessica Hecht so funny, Charles Kimbrough & Carol Kane not enough words to say, and all the rest were top shelf). After the show we went stage door and Mr. Parsons was very sweet to everyone. I reached out to him and told him that I thought Mr. Steward was smiling down on him. Mr. Parsons made the charactar his own but also had a piece of Mr. Steward in there. The show lifts your spirits, you find yourself laughing and crying. I would reccomned this to everyone who wants to come out of the thearter feeling warm all over. My daughter is now very excited to see the movie :) ... Read more

Finally a Funny, Family Friendly Show
I didn't think the show could match the movie with Jimmy Stewart,
but I was wrong. Jim Parson's was a wonderful Elwood P Dowd. I
went with my husband and age twenty-something kids who were
doubtful about a movie with a 6 foot rabbit. Every time I glanced
over at them, they were laughing. We all loved it. I highly
recommend this show to anyone. ... Read more
