Playwright Alfred Uhry (1997 Tony Award winner for Best Play for “The Last Night of Ballyhoo”; 1999 Tony Award winner for Best Book of a Musical for “Parade”) recalls the original production of “Driving Miss Daisy” in 1987 at Playwrights Horizons, lists the actresses he's had the opportunity to see play the title role - based directly on his own grandmother - and discusses the cast of the play's Broadway premiere. He also talks about his Atlanta upbringing and being the beneficiary of his mother's love of the stage; moving to New York after graduating from Brown University and his apprenticeship under the great Frank Loesser; the Broadway musical he regularly leaves out of his bio and resume, which featured a book by another novice, Terrence McNally; the good fortune that smiled on “The Robber Bridegroom”, which featured Raul Julia, Kevin Kline and Barry Bostwick in successive New York incarnations; how the failure of his Al Capone musical “America's Sweetheart” led him to shift away from musicals towards playwriting with “Daisy”; drawing once again on his own family for “The Last Night of Ballyhoo”; collaborating with director Hal Prince and one living composer (Jason Robert Brown) and one deceased (Kurt Weill) for the musicals “Parade” and “LoveMusik”; and how his fact-based drama “Edgardo Mine” has now become “Divine Intervention”.
