Children of a Lesser God
Friday November 26th, 2010 - Saturday December 4th, 2010
Information:
This sincere melodrama is the uplifting love story about an idealistic special education teacher (James) who falls in love with one of his deaf students (Sarah). At first, James sees Sarah as a teaching challenge. But soon their teacher/student relationship blossoms into a love so passionate it shatters. The central conflict of Mark Medoff's play is on whose terms the romance will exist: will Sarah learn how to read lips and talk, as James wants her to, or communicate only in sign language (what she calls a "silence full of sound")?

A Tony award winner in 1980 this play was made into a very successful film in 1986
