Everyone will love this charming, upbeat adaptation of a literary classic.  Mary Lennox (’Such A Difficult Child’) is sent to live in England after her parents die in India.  Misselthwaite Manor turns out to be a gloomy fortress.  Her uncle is rarely home and his young son, Colin, never leaves his room, convinced he’s an incurable invalid.  Mary discovers a strange walled garden that has been locked up for years.  With the gardener’s apprentice, Dickon, a lad who can talk to the animals, Mary coaxes the garden back to life.  The garden seems to have a wonderful, magical effect on all who come into it, allowing Mary to help restore Colin to health and a reunion with his father.  The score is bright and delightful:  ’Take a Flower To the Fair,’ You Can Do It,’ ’Something’s Happening With Master Colin.’ This version also introduces the endearing Sowerby family (’One Big Happy Family’).  It’s highly entertaining and remarkably easy to stage.

Hear what directors and critics are saying:

A wonderful show, filled with challenges for the young actor, a classic story and fantastic music that’s easy to learn (and that sticks in your head months later)! Lizanne Schader, The Neighborhood Playhouse, Bellingham, WA


Great story, great songs and great characters.


A well written classic for younger people.  It is a familiar story with creative touches to make it new and exciting for the audience.  The music by Bill Francoeur was simple yet fun and the students found themselves singing it a lot, especially Take a Flower to the Fair, a big group number ...  a must-have for any musical show.


Songs were catchy and smart, and dialogue was sharp.  It was suitable for middle schoolers without being silly or corny.
