How I Learned To Drive

Date: Apr 5, 2019 at 7:30pm to 10:00pm
How I Learned To Drive by Paula Vogel is the story of Li'l Bit as it shows the sexual relationship between her and her aunt's husband, Uncle Peck, from her teenage-adult years. Using the metaphor of driving and the issues of pedophilia, incest, and misogyny, the play explores the ideas of control and manipulation. *DISCLAIMER* This production contains extremely sensitive material that may be triggering some audience members.
