By Adrian Harte GRAND BEND - As the Huron Country Playhouse continues this summer's obsession with presenting stage versions of what have al- ready been classic movies, we now have a play about an invisible six- foot rabbit. Harvey, however, isn't as inane as it sounds. Beneath the obvious comedy of such a situation, there are underlying doubts as to what humanity values most. The invisible rabbit can only be seen by Elwood Dowd (played by Playhouse favorite Jack Northmore), and the main problem with hav- ing an uncle or brother who can see an invisible rabbit and likes to in- troduce him to everyone he meets, is that the whole thing interferes terribly with the social calendar - or so believe Myrtle Mae Simmons (Marcia Tratt) and her daughter (Deborah Turnbull). "People get run over by trucks every day. Why can't something like that happen to uncle Elwood?" moans Vera Louise. Naturally, unable to allow the indignity of an eccentric relative to blemish their social acceptance, the pair attempt to have Elwood com- mitted to an asylum. The problem is that Elwood appears quite sane when asked the right questions, and those attempting to build their case against him begin to appear insane.
