Actually there was no miracle worker... Anne Sullivan (Helen Keller's teacher) actually wasn't a miracle worker. She just simply taught Helen Keller how to read and actually sort of see.
Hallie Kate Eisenberg had done Helen Keller's part in the Disney version of "The Miracle Worker".
Helen and James are siblings in "The Miracle Worker." James is Helen's half-brother and they have a close bond. James acts as a supportive and protective figure for Helen throughout the play.
I've played Percy before in The Miracle Worker. My interpretation of it is that when Helen pushes Martha over and grabs the scissors about to hurt Martha Percy runs over to the bell to inform the family inside of what's going on. It's almost automatic for Percy that when something like this happens with Helen he rings the bell. When I was doing it I added a line in where I yelled through the doorway: "Mrs Keller! Mrs Keller!" because Mrs Keller does indeed come out and get Helen off Martha. Hope this helped!
True.
In "The Miracle Worker," Mildred is the younger sister of Helen Keller, the main character of the play. Mildred is not a prominent figure in the story and does not play a significant role in the narrative.
