This July, St. John’s Drama proudly presents William Gibson’s Tony Award-winning play, The Miracle Worker.
The play tells the story of Annie Sullivan and her student, Helen Keller, who lost her sight and hearing at the age of 19 months. With compassion, humor and dramatic tension, The Miracle Worker explores the volatile relationship between a lonely teacher and her headstrong charge.
Trapped in a secret, silent world, unable to communicate, young Helen is violent and spoiled, treated by her family as subhuman. Only Annie sees a mind and spirit waiting to be rescued from Helen's dark, tortured silence. After scenes of intense physical and emotional struggle, Helen's breakthrough finally arrives with the utterance of a single, glorious word: "water."
Performances will be held in Father Ruehl Hall at St. John the Baptist Catholic Church, 120 W. Main Street, Front Royal, VA 22630.
Evening performances: Friday, July 25th, Saturday, July 26th, and Monday, July 28th at 7:00 pm; Matinee performance: Sunday, July 27th at 2:30 pm.
