Helen Keller: "A LIfe Nearly Lost"

Helen Keller "A Life Nearly Lost" features Jessica Michna as Helen Keller. In the late 19th century, a little girl struggled out of the depths of fear.

Through Anne's diligence and perseverance, Helen would become a world-renowned speaker and advocate for the disabled. The show is at 2 p.m. at the Douglas County Historical Society's History Theater.
