Join Opera Wyoming this summer as we present the Tony Award-winning musical based on Frances Hodgson Burnett's 1911 novel.
Performances July 19-28, 2024
With a special gala performance on July 21 with an afternoon tea.
This enchanting classic of children's literature is reimagined in brilliant musical style by composer Lucy Simon and Marsha Norman, the Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright of 'Night Mother. 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.
Join Opera Wyoming for an early afternoon tea. We will have beverages, finger foods, and live music as well as a silent auction to help raise money for our upcoming season.
Adults: $45
Children: $35
Tables of 8: $280
Opera Wyoming strives to cultivate a culture of connectedness and inclusion. We believe the strength of our organization is dependent upon the unique perspective each volunteer brings to our operations and our performances. Diverse life experiences, knowledge, self-expression, and talents make for richer artistic expression, honest storytelling, and relevant programming that is better for our community. Opera Wyoming actively seeks to represent all communities in Wyoming in all areas of our operations, including our board, volunteers, and committees. Opera Wyoming does not discriminate based on race, creed, ethnicity, gender, age, disability, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, education, religion, beliefs, or any other factor that would deny access to participation in our performances as volunteer, performer, or audience member.
