Riverlinks, Christine Harris and HIT Productions present DRIVING MISS DAISY

It was the beginning of a beautiful friendship.

This is the play on which the award winning film was based; live on stage, it is even more engaging, funny, sad and up-lifting.

Set in Atlanta, Georgia - deep in America's south, Driving Miss Daisy takes us on a leisurely drive from 1948 to 1973.

Since Miss Daisy is becoming a menace behind the wheel, her son Boolie ignores her protests and hires Hoke, an African-American chauffeur.

At first, Daisy wants nothing to do with Hoke. This heart-warming play shows Daisy's tug of- war with unthinking prejudice, until she comes to acknowledge his wisdom and finally admit to the depth of the trusting friendship they have shared.
