How I Learned to Drive, sponsored by Children Trust Michigan
On the Black Box stage, April 3-6 & 10-13

The story of a woman who navigates both the rules of the road and the complexities of life from behind the wheel. This poignant, often surprising narrative blends humor and heartbreak, offering a compelling tale of survival through the lens of a troubled relationship between a young girl and her uncle. Nostalgic moments of learning to drive are woven together with hard-hitting lessons about life's darker truths.

This story is told through a woman’s recollections of an inappropriate romantic and sexual relationship she developed with her aunt’s husband during her teenage years. Please be aware of the following content notice: This show contains mature themes, including grooming, sexual abuse, power imbalances, and the long-term impact of trauma. The play also features strong language and discussions of sexual situations. While these themes are handled with care, they may be distressing for some audience members. Viewer discretion is advised.
