Adapted from the novel by Frances Hodgson Burnett, this is a truly beautiful and moving play adaptation that upholds, in every way, the purity and intent of the author.

Story Summary: Mary Lennox, a young English girl awakens one morning in colonial India to find her parents and all the house servants dead from a cholera epidemic. She is sent back to England to live with a cold, grieving, and self-preoccupied uncle. In her aloneness she discovers a secret garden and becomes totally possessed of the idea that Colin - the crippled son of her uncle, can walk if he too can share the Magic of the secret garden.
