The Secret Garden

Broward Center for the Performing Arts
201 SW Fifth Avenue Fort Lauderdale

On a windswept moor in an old haunted house in England, a lonely widower still grieves for his wife ten years after her death. Enter Mary, a sour young orphan who's come to live with her uncle. She discovers a locked garden that's been left to grow wild and uncared for -- much like Mary herself. With the help of her friend and cousin, the little girl brings new life to both the garden and her uncle in the enchanting musical The Secret Garden, a story of hardship turned into hope, of beauty discovered in unlikely places, the power of a child's imagination and the wisdom that accompanies growing up. Written by Pulitzer winner Marsha Norman (The Color Purple) with music by Lucy Simon (Doctor Zhivago), this lush musical delivers a magical theatrical experience at Broward Center for the Performing Arts in Fort Lauderdale.
