DreamWrights to Present THE SECRET GARDEN
by Tyler Peterson - Jan 21, 2016
? Written by Francis Hodgson Burnett and first published in 1910, The Secret Garden takes us on a journey through a different time and place. Set in India and England at the turn of the century, Artistic Director Diane Crews reveals, "This show is about people, my most favorite theme, and their ability to change and help others to change as well." In The Secret Garden, we meet two children who are almost impossible to like. A product of their upbringing, they were spoiled but not loved. They were taught they were better than everyone else. "Growing up with everything and nothing at the same time," explains Crews. "Can you imagine never having a friend? By the end of the story, we end up not only rooting for them, but also liking them."
