The Secret Garden

Playwright Jeanne Sakata has created a new audio adaptation of the beloved children’s classic in this LATW original commission. Mary Lennox is an orphaned 10-year-old who is sent to live with her uncle in his country house on the moors. Her new life is almost unbearable, but when she hears stories of the estate’s mysterious, abandoned garden she’s determined to discover its secrets.
