CONWAY — For its first show of the summer, M&D Playhouse presents the Pulitzer Prize-winning comedy classic “Harvey,” which opened Thursday, June 20, at the Eastern Slope Inn Playhouse in North Conway, with performances Thursday through Sunday for the next three weeks.

Mary Chase’s “Harvey,” which debuted on Broadway 80 years ago, remains a staple of American theater, with its themes of kindness being just as relevant today.
