Driving Miss Daisy
by Alfred Uhry
Directed by Amanda Gibson
Daisy Werthan, an elderly Jewish widow, is determined to maintain her independence. However, when she crashes her car, her son, Boolie, arranges for her to have a chauffeur, an African-American driver named Hoke. Their relationship gets off to a rocky start, but they gradually form a close friendship over the years, one that transcends racial prejudices and social conventions.
