Albuquerque Little Theatre presents DRIVING MISS DAISY
By: A.A. Cristi
DRIVING MISS DAISY tells the story of an elderly Jewish matron, Daisy Werthan, and her chauffeur, Hoke Coleburn. At first, Daisy is none too happy about being forced to rely on a black man to get from one place to the next. Gradually, however, Hoke wins her over, and during the 25-year span of the play, the two develop a deep-rooted affection. This Pulitzer Prize-winning masterpiece is a delicate depiction of racial tensions, the passage of time, and the experience of aging. Playwright Alfred Uhry creates two outsiders who come to a mutual respect grounded in each of their independence, strength, and stubborn integrity
DRIVING MISS DAISY will be performed by Alaina Warren Zachary as Daisy Werthan, Marc Lynch as Hoke Coleburn, and Nicholas Urzetta as Boolie Werthan. DRIVING MISS DAISY will be directed by Paula Stein. DRIVING MISS DAISY opens August 25 and runs through September 10, 2017. Performances will be at Albuquerque Little Theatre, 224 San Pasquale SW.
