This is a GREAT musical with excellent music. It tells the story of Mary Lennox, who is sent to live with her uncle, Archibald Craven, after the deaths of her parents. The book and lyrics are by Marsha Norman, based on the book by Frances Hodgson Burnett. An wonderful broadway musical to definitely take a look at!

This has been one of my favorite musicals since when I first sw it in 1991. It tells the classic story of the beloved novel by the same name. The music is lovely and the whole thing has a mysterious air to it, something never really done in a Secret Garden movie or musical before. I like it. All the lyrics are wonderful and the songs have a wonderful tune too. It is neat to be able to read all the lyrics and all the spoken words. The original cast recording of this musical has some of the spoken words, but not near all of them. It is a nice way to re-live the experience. I highly reccomend this book. If you like this book, you may also like the original novel "The Secret Garden" by Frances Hodgson Burnett and the original cast recording of the musical itself.
