Theatre---Performance

Cité des Arts presents The Miracle Worker, opening Thursday, May 21st. This production stars Sarah Gauthier as Annie Sullivan and Colette Soileau as Helen Keller. The set, which is always such an integral part of the production, was designed by Walter Brown.

This story portrays the volatile, emotional relationship between the
lonely teacher, Annie Sullivan and her blind charge, Helen Keller.
Helen, trapped in her silent, secret world, is bitter, violent,
spoiled and almost animal-like. Annie's success with Helen comes only
after some of the most turbulent, emotionally intense scenes ever
presented. Also an important part of this story is how the Keller
family and their relationships with one another were affected during
this time. The story of Helen Keller is one of the most admired plays
of the modern stage. A wonderful show for the entire family!!

WHEN: May 21 – June 6 (Thursdays – Saturdays) at 7:30pm
WHERE: Cité des Arts, 109 Vine St., downtown Lafayette
COST: $15 for Adults, $10 for Senior Citizens and Students; Groups of
10 or more (all tickets $10.00)
