This enchanting classic of vintage children’s literature is brought to life in brilliant musical style by Pierrot Productions. Orphaned in India, 11 year-old Mary Lennox returns to Yorkshire to live with her embittered, reclusive uncle Archibald and his invalid son Colin. The estate’s many wonders include a magic garden which beckons the children with haunting melodies and the “Dreamers”, spirits from Mary’s past who guide her through her new life, dramatizing this high-powered compelling tale of forgiveness and renewal.
