With a full orchestra and an ever-so-talented, inter-generational cast of 50 people, the Highlands Ranch-based Wesley Players Theatre Company presents four performances of The Secret Garden, a musical. Performances will be held at St. Luke’s United Methodist Church, October 10, 11 & 12, 2024, at 7 p.m., with a matinee on October 13, 2024, at 2 p.m.
This enchanting classic of children’s literature is reimagined in brilliant musical style by composer Lucy Simon and Marsha Norman.
Orphaned in India, 11-year-old Mary Lennox returns to Yorkshire to live with her embittered, reclusive uncle Archibald and his disabled 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 The Secret Garden‘s compelling tale of forgiveness and renewal.
The Wesley Players Theatre Company is an independent, community theatre group in residence at St. Luke’s United Methodist Church that brings together people of all ages and experience levels, from within the church and from the wider community, to perform drama productions and musicals.
Tickets can be purchased online for $18 each ($20 at the door). Part of the proceeds support missions at St. Luke’s UMC.
