Story: This joyous story is about how Mary and Colin, whose natures have been badly warped, thrive with the discovery that selflessness opens the secret door to happiness. They are encouraged by the warm-hearted maid, Martha, and her brother, Dickon, who understands the language of birds; the crusty gardener, Ben; and, of course, the robin that leads Mary to the garden that changes her life. (Suitable for ages 8 and up)
“The entire production is suffused with magic and beauty . . . . An evening of wonder and delight.” –The Wall Street Journal
