Plot:
The play is a memory play, structured around Li'l Bit's recollections of her teenage years, especially her driving lessons with Uncle Peck. The story unfolds as she grapples with the nature of their relationship, which involves a degree of sexual contact and manipulation. The driving lessons serve as a metaphor for the power dynamics and the lessons she learns about life and love, often in a painful and unsettling way.
How I Learned to Drive contains mature subject matter, including sexual themes and depictions of sexual abuse involving a minor. MLTC is committed to fostering a respectful and supportive environment throughout the audition and rehearsal process. Please reach out if you have any questions.
