Orphaned in India, young Mary Lennox journey’s to Yorkshire, England with her embittered uncle Archibald and his sheltered son, Colin. This beloved tale comes to life onstage through a hauntingly beautiful score that helps the inhabitants of the estate and the “Dreamers” – spirits from Mary’s past – navigate this journey of rediscovery, faith, and love. Notable songs include “Lily’s Eyes,” “The Girl I Mean to Be,” and “How Could I Ever Know.”
