A treat for all audiences ages, Driving Miss Daisy is a moving story of friendship told with humor, warmth and beauty. This family comedy is set in Atlanta, Ga. from 1948 to 1973. Daisy Werthan, an independent, aging Jewish widow disagreeable, and set in her ways reluctantly agrees to the demands of her son, Boolie, and surrenders the drivers seat to Hoke Coleburn, a proud, soft-spoken black man. At first, Daisys stubbornness and cultural prejudices cause much friction, but over the course of 25 years, Hoke becomes not only her chauffeur, but against all odds, her best friend. The Washington Post once called this play [a story] marked with unaffected grace and generosity of spirit, medium-sized miracles and changed minds.
