Kentwood Players is a non-profit community theater organization in the Westchester neighborhood of Los Angeles, California.
History
Kentwood Players got its start (and its name) when members of the PTA at Kentwood Elementary School in Westchester, having presented a play at the school, decided to keep on presenting plays. So in 1950 they founded a community theater organization, which has been going strong ever since.
The young organization went through a series of home stages—a barn, a pump house, and a restaurant—until 1960, when the players bought an old warehouse and transformed it into a 112-seat proscenium-stage theater, the Westchester Playhouse.

The Miracle Worker by William Gibson

Adapted from William Gibson’s 1957 Playhouse 90 teleplay of the same name, The Miracle Worker is based on Helen Keller’s autobiography The Story of My Life and won several Tony Awards including Best Play.
Set in Alabama in the 1880s, this classic tells the inspiring true story of Annie Sullivan and her student, the blind and mute Helen Keller. Trapped in a secret, silent world, unable to communicate, Helen is violent, spoiled, almost sub-human and treated by her family as such. Only Annie realizes that there is a mind and spirit waiting to be rescued from the dark, tortured silence.
