Tony Award nominee Roger Robinson (Hedley in Broadway's Seven Guitars) plays Hoke in the Pulitzer Prize-winning play, with Jay Patterson (Broadway's K2) as Daisy's son, Boolie. Pamela Berlin directs.

Performances play the O'Reilly stage. Opening is Nov. 15. Prinz is known to soap opera fans as Penny Hughes on TV's "As the World Turns."

The 1988 winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Drama is set in Atlanta, 1948 to 1973, showing an unexpected friendship growing amid political and social tensions of the time.
