Synopsis
This Secret Garden, the original British musical stage adaptation of the famous story, focuses especially on the children's characters and Mary's friendship with the maid Martha and the gardener Ben. It includes several of Frances Hodgson Burnett's delightful animal characters conceived as puppets. The American premiere at Tennessee's Cumberland County Playhouse brought raves from the audiences and critics alike.
