How I Learned to Drive

Beneath the gentleness of this remarkable play lurks a devastating secret. Using the clinical language of a driver’s manual to comic effect, the play examines the relationship between a young girl and her charming uncle who is teaching her to drive, and follows Li’l Bit as she learns to steer her way through the slippery terrain of her sexual awakening. Winner of the 1998 Pulitzer Prize for Drama.
