“Jim Poulos, as Daisy’s son Boolie, adds a dose of levity and underlying tension throughout. Early in the show he sets the comedic tone with the line, “Cars don’t behave; they are behaved upon!” with a perfect blend of exasperation and affection. Boolie’s speech after being named Atlanta’s Businessman of the Year and later conversation with Daisy about social change hint at a personal push and pull between navigating legacy and embracing progress …With an expertly cast trip and crisp production, “Driving Miss Daisy” is a touching reminder that the slow work of seeing one another is still ongoing and still essential.”
