Performance Network's 'Driving Miss Daisy' and Michigan theater's big race problem

Stage | Detroit Metro Times: Let us start off by explaining that this is not a review, at least not in the traditional sense, of the Performance Network's just opened production of Driving Miss Daisy. We cannot and do not want to comment on the actors' performances or the director's choices or the play's production values. We're sure they're fine. In fact, the Detroit Free Press and Ann Arbor News have complimented the theater for delivering a competent if not engaging production, with John Monaghan at the Freep writing that the show is "an audience pleaser and a nice, safe launch pad" for the company's new director.
