Cité des Arts continues with The Miracle Worker, written by William Gibson. This is an incredible show and wonderful for the entire family! Director, Bruce Coen, has put together a marvelous cast, especially the two lead characters: Sarah Gauthier as Annie Sullivan and Colette Soileau as Helen Keller. The show also stars Zoe Antoine, Cody Brown, Chelsea Charles, Steve Eichoff, Brady Higginbotham, Rachel LeBlanc, Gene Ogle, Jack Sorenson, Margo Uter. Set design 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.
