Winner of the Tony and Drama Desk awards for Best Book, this enchanting children’s classic is reimagined in brilliant musical style. The story features 11 year-old Mary Lennox, orphaned in India and sent to live with her embittered, reclusive uncle and his invalid son in Yorkshire. The many wonders of the estate include a magic garden which beckons the children with haunting melodies, and the “Dreamers,” spirits from Mary’s past who provide guidance, effectively dramatizing this musical’s compelling tale of forgiveness and renewal.
