NEW YORK (AP) — James Earl Jones will be staying behind the wheel of "Driving Miss Daisy" for quite a bit longer.
Producers of the play by Alfred Uhry said
Wednesday they are extending the show's run with its original cast until April
9. It also stars Vanessa Redgrave and Boyd Gaines and was originally expected
to end Jan. 29.
The play centers on a Jewish widow and her
deepening friendship with her African-American chauffeur. The show has been
virtually selling out the intimate, 800-seat Golden Theatre on 45th Street and
commands one of the highest average ticket prices on Broadway.
