Night of the Living Dead Live is the official authorized stage production of the landmark George A. Romero film. Set in 1968, the play is a hilarious tribute to the legendary classic! A loving examination of the movie, the time period, and the film’s undying influence on the horror genre.

The play incorporates a series of increasingly hilarious alternate endings, where the characters desperately try to survive the night. However, their contrasting personalities always seem to prevent the group from working together. Which leaves us all wondering: Could anyone survive a night of the living dead?

The Mount Morris Performing Arts Guild presents the comedy "Harvey" Friday-Sunday, Nov. 6-8 at the Allure of Pinecrest Grove Theatre.

Harvey is a 1944 classic play by Mary Chase, a Pulitzer Prize-winning comedy that blends humor, fantasy, and thoughtful commentary on social expectations.

The story centers on Elwood Dowd, a gentle, courteous man whose constant companion is Harvey, an invisible 6 foot 3 ½ inch rabbit. Elwood’s sister Veta is increasingly distressed by the embarrassment this causes the family and their social standing. She decides to have him committed to a psychiatric hospital. A series of misunderstandings leads to Veta being admitted instead of Elwood.

Elwood’s warmth and sincerity begin to affect everyone he meets. Harvey’s mysterious presence seems to influence events in ways that make people question if perhaps he is truly imaginary.
