Driving Miss Daisy by Alfred Uhry,  Thursdays, March 15 and 22, 10:30 a.m. 
Alfred Uhry's classic play Driving Miss Daisy tells the story of a Jewish widow and her African-American driver who develop a rewarding and unlikely friendship in the racially divided deep South. Set against the backdrop of the Civil Rights movement, the story weaves both national news-events and everyday injustices through their experiences, reminding us all that our diversity is rich, and our commonality is our treasure.
