SHOW SYNOPSIS

Magnolia Taylor, the pride of Denton, Georgia, is a feisty, eccentric matriarch who claims that the movie, “Driving Miss Daisy” was originally written about her.  She insists on being called "Miss Daizy" and continually refers to her next-door neighbor Willie as her chauffeur, "Hoke."  While that obsession is a bit unsettling to both Willie and Miss Daizy's contemptuous niece, Lurlene, it's not nearly as unnerving as her other fixation.

Miss Daizy is so enamored with the famous singers on her radio that she considers them to be her personal “friends” and claims they actually visit her in her parlor. Furthermore, she believes that she's going to New York City to join them for big show at Radio City Music Hall.  Lurlene, however, believes it's all a delusion fueled by the moonshine Miss Daizy repeatedly puts in her tea.  As such, she and Willie try to convince Miss Daizy that she'd be better off at Shady Pines Retirement Village. Of course, Miss Daizy will have none of that.  And so the battle of wits and wills is on!

While Lurlene and Willie scheme to get her to Shady Pines, Miss Daizy summons her "friends" Sammy Davis, Jr., Peggy Lee, Nat King Cole, Barbra Streisand,  Patsy Cline, Louie Armstrong, Dolly Parton, and others for support and is also befriended by the kind, young delivery man from the local general store.

Finally, the moment of truth arrives. But what is the truth?  Is Miss Daizy really en route to the Big Apple with her friends?  Or is she on her way to “naptime" at Shady Pines?  In the end, it all comes down to one question – Just how crazy is Miss Daizy?
