Event Details
Helen Keller is performed by actor Sheryl Faye, who brings stories of historical women to life in a unique and memorable way.
The program is written from Helen’s mind's eye. The story is told on a taped voice-over as Helen reenacts her full life from her childhood through her discovery of language when she was seven years old to the writing of her twelve books. She will show how she speaks and reads in Braille, and her story continues through her graduation from college. This is a unique and special program that helps everyone understand and accept the different ways people do the same things and inspires them to be the best they can be with their talents.
Sheryl Faye portrays a touching story about the woman who showed the world there were no boundaries to courage and faith!
