Now Playing - The Miracle WorkerWilliam Gibson's The Miracle Worker plays June 1 - July 7, 2013. Tickets are available through the Simi Valley Cultural Arts Center box office by calling 805-583-7900.
William Gibson's The Miracle Worker was initially written for television before being presented on stage in 1959. From that point on, it's been one of the most popular pieces of American theater. It tells the true story of a young teacher named Annie Sullivan and her heroic efforts to give the blind, deaf and mute Helen Keller the gift of language. With no way to communicate, Keller's life until meeting Sullivan was one of frustration and rage. With remarkable dedication and love, Sullivan fed Keller the universe through her hands. Audiences are reawakened to the limitless possibilities of being alive.
