The Secret Garden Wednesdays EU

When Mary Lennox, a lonely and willful young girl, is sent to live with at her mysterious uncle’s Yorkshire estate, Misselthwaite Manor, she soon discovers that the old house is haunted and full of secrets. Screams of a child echo the halls at night and ghosts seem to be everywhere.  When she hears a rumor of a Secret Garden that has been locked up for a decade, Mary can no longer hold back her curiosity. She meets and befriends a host of marvelous characters including Martha, Dickon, Ben the gardener, and many others who live on or near the estate.  Despite the reluctance of the housekeeper Mrs. Medlock, Doctor Craven and her Uncle Archibald, Mary and her friends uncover the mysteries and help young Colin Craven to regain his health. Join First Act on this classic journey of mystery and discovery, based on the beloved book by Frances Hodgson Burnette, as we bring the Secret Garden back to life!
