Event
The Secret Garden
July 12 - July 13
The Secret Garden, a classic of children’s literature, is reimagined in brilliant musical style by composer Lucy Simon and Marsha Norman, the Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright of ‘Night Mother.
Orphaned in India, 11-year-old Mary Lennox returns to Yorkshire to live with her embittered, reclusive uncle Archibald and his disabled son Colin. The estate’s many wonders include a magic garden which beckons the children with haunting melodies and the “Dreamers,” spirits from Mary’s past who guide her through her new life, dramatizing The Secret Garden’s compelling tale of forgiveness and renewal.
The Secret Garden opened on Broadway at the St. James Theatre on April 25, 1991. Directed by Susan H. Schulman, the production won three Tony® Awards of its seven total nominations. The cast featured featured Daisy Eagan, Alison Fraser, Rebecca Luker, John Cameron Mitchell, Mandy Patinkin and Robert Westenberg. The musical played for a total of 709 performances, closing on January 3, 1993.

A many-splendored children’s fable that neither cloys or loses grip on its unique spell. – Newsday
Revels in theatrical imagination [and] achieves the irresistible appeal that moves audiences to standing ovations. – Christian Science Monitor
