Driving Miss Daisy - Cancelled
By Alfred Uhry
Directed by Ralph Maffongelli
Having recently demolished another car, Daisy Werthan, a rich, sharp-tongued Jewish widow of seventy-two, is informed by her son, Boolie, that she must rely on the services of a chauffeur. The person he hires is a thoughtful, unemployed black man, Hoke, whom Miss Daisy immediately regards with disdain and who, in turn, is not impressed with his employer’s patronizing tone and, he believes, her latent prejudice. As the play ends Hoke has a final visit with Miss Daisy, while it is evident that a vestige of her fierce independence and sense of position still remain, it is also movingly clear that they have both come to realize they have more in common than they ever believed possible.
