Directed by Ann M. Ring, the cast includes Karen McPherson of Chatham as Daisy Werthan, Ron Williams of Chatham as Hoke Coleburn and James Ring of Barnstable as Boolie Werthan. This award winning comedy-drama is a warm-hearted, humorous and an affecting study of the unlikely twenty-five year friendship between an aging, crotchety white Southern lady, and a proud, uneducated, soft-spoken black man. This much-loved story explores themes of race, prejudice, friendship, and aging in a way that makes it movingly clear that they have both come to realize that they have more in common than they ever believed possible.
