"Driving Miss Daisy is a miniature with a power far beyond its apparent size." -Howard Kissel, Daily News

"Utterly engaging...how warm and wonderful and human it all is" -David Richards, The Washington Post

"Its restraint and plain common sense seem a near miracle." -Sylviane Gold, The Wall Street Journal

Set in mid-century Atlanta, Driving Miss Daisy tells the story of an elderly Jewish matron, Daisy Werthan, and her chauffeur, Hoke Coleburn. At first Daisy is none too happy about being forced to rely on a black man. But Hoke gradually wins her over, and during the 25-year span of the play the two develop a deep-rooted affection.

Driving Miss Daisy is a delicate depiction of racial tensions and of growing old. Alfred Uhry has created two outsiders who come to a mutual respect based on their independence, strength and stub- born integrity.

Driving Miss Daisy is the winner of the 1988 Pulitzer Prize. Origi- nally produced by Playwrights Horizons, the play continues to run Off Broadway more than a year later. Major productions in Chi- cago and London are to be followed during the 1988-89 season by a national tour and by performances in countries around the world. Uhry is currently writing the screenplay.

Born in Atlanta, Alfred Uhry graduated from Brown University and came to New York to be a lyricist. His musicals include Here's Where I Belong, Swing, America's Sweetheart and, most notably, The Robber Bridegroom. Driving Miss Daisy is Uhry's first nonmusical play.
