How I Learned to Drive

Written by Paula Vogel
Directed by Anthony Bosco

Li'l Bit grows up in rural Maryland during the 1960s with a large extended family: her mother, who became pregnant at a young age; her grandmother, a God-fearing former child-bride, her ignorant, sexist grandfather, her Uncle Peck, who has been affected by experiences in combat and is a recovering alcoholic, and Aunt Mary, who is in denial of her husband's behavior.

When Li'l Bit is eleven, Uncle Peck gives her a driving lesson; however, he uses the opportunity to molest her. Li'l Bit is too young to understand the occurrence, and while her mother and aunt suspect that Peck has an unhealthy interest in his niece, they do nothing about it.

How I learned to Drive addresses a serious topic with class and humor. Although tastefully handeled, we would recommend this play for mature audiences.

Adult Themes and Situations, and Language.
