THE SECRET GARDEN

The Secret Garden
April 12 - May 5, 2013
Book & Lyrics by Marsha Norman
Music by Lucy Simon
Based on the novel by Frances Hodgson Burnett
The Secret Garden is presented by special arrangement with SAMUEL FRENCH, INC.

Directed by Peg Major

This enchanting classic of children's literature is re-imagined in brilliant musical style by composer Lucy Simon and Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Marsha Norman. Orphaned in India, 11 year-old Mary Lennox returns to England to live with her embittered, reclusive uncle Archibald and his invalid son Colin. The Yorkshire estate's many wonders include a magic garden that beckons the children with haunting melodies, and the Dreamers, spirits from Mary's past who guide her through her new life. The Secret Garden's compelling tale of forgiveness and renewal will appeal to adults and children alike.
