BroadwayWorld has a sneak peek at the cast in action below!
Winner of the 1988 Pulitzer Prize, Driving Miss Daisy is a timeless, searing, funny, and ultimately hopeful meditation on race relations in America, told through the complex relationship between two of popular culture's most enduring characters. Daisy, a widowed, 72-year-old woman living in midcentury Atlanta, is deemed too old to drive. Her son hires Hoke Colburn, an African American man, to serve as her chauffeur. What begins as a troubled and hostile pairing, soon blossoms into a profound, life-altering friendship that transcends all the societal boundaries placed between them.
All performances are held at the Steve W. Shepherd Theater, 1668 Hwy 87 South, Fredericksburg, TX, 78624. The production opens on Thursday, April 13th at 7:30 p.m., and run until Sunday, April 30th.
