The Secret Garden

ABOUT

Cape Town Theatre Company returns with a magical new production at the heart of its summer season. Frances Burnett’s iconic and much loved tale is reimagined for the stage by the uniquely imaginative mind of award winning designer and director, Stephan Fourie. The show is a vibrant feast for the eyes, taking audiences on a mystical whirlwind adventure as they discover the secrets of a mysterious hidden garden. A talented cast of 23 performers tell the story of orphaned Mary Lennox, who finds herself living in her cruel uncle’s manor. Alone and frightened, yet stubborn as ever, she explores the grounds and discovers a magical secret garden. She is joined on her adventure by Dickon, a boy who talks to animals and her sickly cousin Colin, who matches her stubbornness and grumpy manner. 

This extravagant production contains all the ingredients of a magical theatrical adventure, with gorgeous puppets, enormous sets, vibrant choreography and a heart warming story performed by a stellar cast at the centre of it all. 

The Secret Garden is the must-see family outing in Cape Town’s vibrant summer entertainment catalogue. Experience the wonder of this tale as never seen before.
