“DRIVING MISS DAISY” – Suncoast Broadway DT – Hudson

Activity Level: 2

Driving Miss Daisy is a captivating, heartwarming journey that brings together two unforgettable characters—Daisy Werthan, a feisty Jewish widow, and Hoke Colburn, her wise and patient African American chauffeur. Set in the racially charged American South, this poignant and powerful play explores themes of friendship, race, and personal growth with humor, emotion, and unexpected twists. As Daisy and Hoke’s relationship transforms over time, their story delivers a profound message of tolerance, resilience, and the beauty of connection. Written by Alfred Uhry, the play was inspired by Uhry’s grandmother, Lena Fox, her chauffeur, Will Coleman, and his father. His grandmother, a Jewish woman who lived in Atlanta during the 1960s, had to give up driving after a car accident, and hired Coleman, who drove her for 25 years.
