HOW I LEARNED TO DRIVE
by Paula Vogel
directed by Anthony Methvin

February 22nd – March 16th, 2024

Cast:
Megan Carmitchel, Francis Gercke,
William Huffaker, Karson St. John, and Emilee Zuniga

A wildly funny, surprising and heartbreaking tale of survival as seen through the lens of a troubling relationship between a young girl and an older man. HOW I LEARNED TO DRIVE is the story of a woman who learns the rules of the road and life from behind the wheel.

Winner of the 1998 Pulitzer Prize for Drama

“With subtle humor and teasing erotic encounters, Vogel addresses the dangerous intersections of teenage temptation. The play is a potent and convincing comment on a taboo subject, and its impact sneaks up on its audience.”
—Variety
