SUMMARY:Driving Miss Daisy
DESCRIPTION:Driving Miss Daisy\n\nBy Alfred Uhry\n\n\n\nWinner of the Pulitzer Prize for Drama\, Driving Miss Daisy is a timeless tale of unlikely friendship\, dignity\, and the passage of time. When 72-year-old Daisy Werthan\, a sharp-witted Jewish widow in 1948 Atlanta\, crashes her car\, her son hires Hoke Colburn\, a thoughtful and patient Black chauffeur\, to drive her. What begins as a contentious employer-employee relationship slowly transforms into a profound and enduring bond. Set against the backdrop of a changing American South\, this quietly powerful play explores issues of race\, aging\, and identity with warmth\, humor\, and grace. At its heart\, Driving Miss Daisy is a poignant reminder that friendship can bloom in the most unexpected places.\n\n\n\nStaged Reading\, Drama\n\nRating: PG\n\nAudience advisory: Driving Miss Daisy contains language and themes reflective of the American South from the 1940s to the 1970s\, including references to racism\, prejudice\, and antisemitism. While the play ultimately centers on empathy\, friendship\, and understanding across cultural lines\, it does not shy away from difficult truths. Viewer discretion is advised.\n\n\n\nRuntime: 90 minutes. 15 minute intermission.\n\n\n\nCast:\n\n\n\nDAISY WERTHAN - Sharon Jahneke  \n\nHOKE COLBURN - Mack Bates  \n\nBOOLIE WERTHAN - Matthew Umstot  \n\nNARRATOR - Barb Lancelle  \n\n\n\nProduction Team:\n\n\n\nDirected by Nancy Hurd\n\nProducer: Kit Seidel\n\n\n\nDRIVING MISS DAISY is presented by special arrangement with Dramatists Play Service. www.dramatists.com
