Journey into the heart of a magical world with this brand new production of the musical adaptation of Frances Hodgson Burnett’s classic novel.

Orphaned at a young age, Mary Lennox is sent to live with her distant and grieving uncle in his gloomy Yorkshire manor. In her loneliness, Mary discovers a long-forgotten garden sealed away behind a locked gate. As she tends to the neglected garden, its natural beauty and vitality are slowly restored — just as hope and love begin to rekindle in the lives of her new family.

This Tony Award-winning musical, with its hauntingly beautiful score by Lucy Simon and a book and lyrics by Pulitzer Prize-winner Marsha Norman, is a captivating tale of hope, resilience, and the power of nature.

Directed by Graham Hubbard and performed by a cast of professionally trained musical theatre students, The Secret Garden celebrates the resilience of the human spirit – a message perfect for all ages!
