Rodgers and Hammerstein's first glorious collaboration created a new standard for musical theater.

The beloved score includes "Oh, What A Beautiful Mornin'" and "People Will Say We're In Love."
"Songs, dances and story have been triumphantly blended... a striking piece of theatrical Americana." - New York Herald-Tribune

A philandering husband is hoping to entertain his mistress for the weekend, has arranged for a chef to furnish the gourmet delights and is in the process of packing his wife off to her mother's. It's foolproof! Except the Mrs. has a few secrets of her own, the chef is mistaken for the mistress, an extra husband shows up, and each outlandish explanation devised by the participants is more ludicrous than the last. It's side-splitting farce served up at a break-neck speed: a perfect recipe for hilarious fun.
"Hurtling along at the speed of light, [this] breathtaking farce is a near faultless piece of theatrical invention." - The Guardian
Elwood P. Dowd is a cheerful and charming fellow with one character flaw: an unwavering friendship with a 6-foot-tall, invisible rabbit named Harvey. In order to save the family's social reputation, Elwood's sister Veta takes him to the local sanitorium. But when doctors mistakenly commit his anxiety-ridden sister, Elwood - and Harvey - slip out of the hospital unbothered, setting off a hilarious whirlwind of confusion and chaos as everyone in town tries to catch a man and his invisible rabbit. This irrisistable classic American comedy is chock-full of eccentric and loveable characters and has warmed the hearts of audiences for generations. A feel-good fantasy for the whole family. Pulitzer Prize winner.
