Musical
Gateway
Regional
High
School’s
musical
production
of
The
Secret
Garden
was
a
play
that
started
with
darkness
and
tragedy,
emerging
into
a
story
of
hope,
triumph,
and
beauty.
The
students
did
a
phenomenal
job
depicting
the
sad
little
girl
from
India
who
recently
lost
her
parents,
sent
to
live
with
her
equally
sad
uncle
who
had
just
lost
his
wife.
With
help
from
the
spirit
of
the
uncle’s
wife
and
a
host
of
other
souls
(both
living
and
departed)
the
pair
learns
about
love,
trust,
and
belief
in
the
beauty
of
this
world
once
again.
The
souls
of
Mary
Lennox’s
aunt
and
others
watch
over
Mary
while
she
lay
sleeping
after
the
cholera
epidemic
in
India
takes
her
loved
ones
and
friends,
leaving
her
alone
in
the
world.
Upon
awakening,
soldiers
sent
by
Uncle
Archibald
inform
Mary
of
her
parent’s
sudden
demise
and
tell
her
they
will
bring
her
to
her
uncle’s
mansion
in
Yorkshire.
