“One of the greatest pleasures I find in the arts is to be astonished at human ability...Such a spectacle of gratuitous talent incites me, not only to praise the artist, but to praise God for giving such ability to human beings.” Gene Veith, State of the Arts

The Miracle Worker Auditions

The Fall play for Mingo Valley Christian School will be "The Miracle Worker."  This story of Helen Keller and her instructor Anne Sullivan was performed at Mingo 10 years ago and it is now time for its resurrection. The cast includes 5 male characters and 10-12 female characters.  Auditions are open for all secondary students this Fall!  Auditions will be Sept. 1&2 from 3:30-5:30 in Mr. Madden's room.  You do not need to come to both days.  During the audition, you will be performing from various short scenes in the script.  I will try to have these available to pick up by August 27.
You may read portions of the script and see the cast list here at google books. For a little more background on the play go here.  Looking forward to another great Fall play!  I hope to see many of you at the auditions! If you have any questions please don't be afraid to ask.


"It gives me a deep, comforting sense that things seen are temporal and things unseen are eternal." - Helen Keller
