The Miracle Worker
February 21, 2006
Performed by:
Orlando Repertory Theatre
Select performances interpreted by ASL Services, Inc.
This stirring dramatization of the story of Helen Keller is one of the most successful and warmly admired plays of the modern stage.
Blind and mute, nobody knows what Helen's fate might have been had she not come under the tutelage of Annie Sullivan, an Irish girl who was born blind. The Miracle Worker is principally concerned with the emotional relationship between the lonely teacher and her blind charge. Little Helen, trapped in her secret world, is bitter, violent, spoiled and almost animal like. Only Annie realizes that there is a mind waiting to be rescued from that dark, tortured silence. Annie's success with Helen comes only after some of the most turbulent and emotion-packed scenes ever presented on the stage.
Interpreted Performances:
February 3rd 7pm
February 6th 10:15am*
February 12th 2pm
February 21st 10:15am*
*(school groups also invited to attend)
