 End Notes 

Come to the Garden!

 

As we embark on this journey together,  This timeless musical adaptation of Frances Hodgson Burnett's classic novel holds a special place in my heart, and I am thrilled to have the opportunity to bring it to life on stage once again.

 

"The Secret Garden" is a tale that resonates deeply with the human spirit. At its core, it is a story of healing, growth, and the transformative power of love. As we follow young Mary Lennox on her journey from a dark and desolate past to a newfound sense of belonging and purpose, we are reminded of the resilience of the human heart and the beauty of redemption.

 

In bringing this beloved story to the stage, our team has strived to capture the essence of Burnett's novel while infusing it with our own unique vision. Every aspect of this production has been carefully crafted to transport you to the haunting beauty of Misselthwaite Manor and the mysterious wonders of the hidden garden.

"The Secret Garden" is a story with profound emotional depth. It is a story about the importance of connection – with others, with nature, and with ourselves. It reminds us that even in our darkest moments, there is always the possibility of renewal and growth.

 

As you watch our talented cast bring these characters to life, I encourage you to open your hearts to the magic of "The Secret Garden." Allow yourself to be swept away by the music, the emotion, and the sheer wonder of it all. And may you leave the theater feeling uplifted, inspired, and perhaps a little bit closer to discovering your own secret garden within.

 

Thank you for joining us on this journey. Now, let us unlock the gate and step into the magic together.

Warm regards,
