'The Miracle Worker' is a powerful and moving drama which is based on the true story of teacher Annie Sullivan and her volatile relationship with blind and mute student Helen Keller. Helen is trapped in a silent world, unable to communicate with the outside world. She has been pampered and spoiled and is violent until her devoted teacher Annie reaches through the world of darkness and deafness and realizes that there is a beautiful mind and spirit to be rescued and nurtured. Annie finally breaks through to the child with the first wonderful word communicated between them----'water'.
