 The Secret Garden
book and lyrics by Marsha Norman / music by Lucy Simon
It took a Pulitzer Prize winning playwright to turn this enchanting classic into a
brilliant musical. Orphaned in India, 11-year-old Mary returns to Yorkshire, England, to
live with her embittered, reclusive uncle and his invalid son, Colin. The estate includes
a magic locked garden that becomes a secret refuge for the cousins. Some of the most
beautiful music ever written for Broadway dramatizes the story's compelling tale of
regeneration. A treasure for children and adults!
