The Secret Garden, a musical adaptation of Frances Hodgson Burnett's classic children's novel, takes you on a journey of healing and self-discovery. The music and lyrics were composed by Lucy Simon, with a book written by Marsha Norman, a Tony Award-winning playwright. The musical debuted on Broadway in 1991 and garnered critical acclaim.
The story unfolds in two locations – bustling India and the secluded Misselthwaite Manor in Yorkshire, England. Mary Lennox, a young girl orphaned in India, is sent to live with her reclusive uncle Archibald Craven at his gloomy manor. There, she discovers a hidden garden, locked away after the death of Archibald's wife. With the help of a friendly robin, a local boy named Dickon, and her sickly cousin Colin, Mary breathes life back into the garden, mirroring their own personal growth and the blossoming of hope.
