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.
