How I Learned to Drive

Balmy evenings in rural Maryland are fraught with danger, and seductions can happen anywhere from a river bank to the front seat of a car, where a young, self-conscious girl is learning to drive. To Li'l Bit, the radio is the most important part of the car, but the pop music of the '50s can never quite drown out the harrowing images in her mind. Winner of the 1998 Pulitzer Prize for Drama.

Randall Arney as Uncle Peck

Joy Gregory as Teenage Greek Chorus (Grandma/Others)

Glenne Headly as Li'l Bit
