Driving Miss Daisy is written by Alfred Uhry and is sponsored at the Sioux Community Theater by Schoeneman Building Materials Center.
Winner of the Pulitzer Prize, as well as four Oscars, Driving Miss Daisy begins in the Deep South of 1948 and spans the next twenty-five years evolving the relationship between Miss Daisy Werthan (a sharp-tongued Jewish widow) and Hoke (the initially unemployed chauffer that her son hires to keep her from driving recklessly). Set against the backdrop of social change, the gulf between them is gradually broken down as they grow to depend on and care for one another.
