Well then we have a treat for you! This year RHS is doing 2 musicals, and the 1st is fast approaching. Join us October 29, 30, and Nov. 1st for The Secret Garden. Based on Frances Hodgson Burnett’s beloved children’s classic, The Secret Garden tells a story of loss and healing. Mary Lennox has lost her family to the cholera in India and now lives with her uncle, Archibald Craven, who is himself dealing with the death of his wife. As Mary discovers her Aunt Lily’s secret garden, the process of bring the garden back to life also brings healing to the entire manor household. This story of pain transforms into a beautiful story of love and forgiveness.
