Based on the remarkable true story of Helen Keller and her teacher
Annie Sullivan, this inspiring and unforgettable play has moved
countless readers and become an American classic.
Young Helen Keller, blind, deaf, and mute since infancy, is in
danger of being sent to an institution because her inability to
communicate has left her frustrated and violent. In desperation,
her parents seek help from the Perkins Institute, which sends them
a "half-blind Yankee schoolgirl" named Annie Sullivan to tutor
their daughter. Despite the Kellers' resistance and the belief that
Helen "is like a little safe, locked, that no one can open," Annie
suspects that within Helen lies the potential for more, if only she
can reach her. Through persistence, love, and sheer stubbornness,
Annie breaks through Helen's walls of silence and darkness and
teaches her to communicate, bringing her into the world at
last.
