The Miracle Worker by William Gibson
Dramatisation of the story of Helen Keller and her
teacher Annie Sullivan.
Helen Keller is world-famous
for her work with those
born blind, deaf and dumb.
The play tells the story of
Annie Sullivan's efforts to teach
Helen to communicate, fighting against the thoughtless indulgence
of Helen's family and her doting possessive mother.
Finally and after much frustration,
Annie achieves the miracle of teaching Helen language.
Only now can it truly be said that Helen's life began.
