Review: THE SECRET GARDEN at Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre

Frances Hodgson Burnett’s endearingly quaint piece of Edwardiana has been newly adaptated through the joint talents of Holly Robinson and Anna Himali Howard, with the latter also serving as director on the production.

First off, it should be emphasised that the version being performed within the idyllic setting of Regent’s Park Open Air theatre, is NOT the musical which has been around since the early 1990s, but a play version unapologetically aimed at the younger end of the age spectrum.
