THE SECRET GARDEN (CANCELLED)
Book and Lyrics by Marsha Norman
Music by Lucy Simon
Based on the novel “The Secret Garden” by Frances Hodgson Burnett
Directed by Robert Westenberg
Showing at the Craig Hall Coger Theatre
Following the death of her parents in colonial India, eleven-year-old Mary is sent to live with her reclusive Uncle Archibald in the English countryside. Archibald still mourns the loss of his beautiful young wife a decade earlier, and his vast mansion is devoid of joy. His only child, ten-year-old Colin, is a sickly boy, confined to his room. Seeking to escape the gloom, Mary ventures outside and discovers a mysterious walled garden that has been locked since her aunt’s death. With the help of “The Dreamers”— protective spirits from her past — Mary resolves to bring the neglected garden back to life and restore the beauty that once was. A musical adaptation of the classic Victorian children’s book, The Secret Garden is an enchanting tale of hope and healing!
