The Miracle Worker
49 Spa Road Annapolis
The Miracle Worker, directed by Lucinda Merry-Browne, Compass Rose’s founder and Artistic Director, tells the true story of Helen Keller’s discovery of language. Helen Keller was blind and deaf from infancy. The Kellers, a wealthy Southern family, desperately sought a cure for their daughter. In their utmost despair, they looked to a school in the North where they found Annie Sullivan, a poor student. In this wonderful play, Annie travels south to live with the Kellers and attempts to tame Helen’s wildness and educate her. The play focuses around Annie’s determination to reach Helen by any means and find the key to unlock the mystery of language for young Helen. In helping Helen, Annie finds love in herself. The play is spellbinding and will touch the hearts of all.
