The Story

Alfred Uhry’s Pulitzer Prize winning play depicts the  relationship between an elderly Southern Jewish matron, Daisy Werthan and her African-American chauffeur, Hoke Coleburn, from 1948 to 1973.

In this delicate depiction of racial tensions and growing old, two outsiders come to a mutal respect based on their independence, strength, and stubborn integrity.
