This year\u2019s production, entitled \u201cThe Secret Garden,\u201d follows the story of the main character, Mary Lennox, who goes to stay with her uncle Archibold, a rich upperclassman living in a haunted English home.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The lead roles of the show were cast before winter break with sophomore Matthew Conley as Archibold Craven and senior Emily Wyatt as Lily, Craven\u2019s dead wife.

It\u2019s going to be a bit of a challenge but I\u2019m excited to take on that challenge. It\u2019s a little stressful sometimes because it&#8217;s a big responsibility, but I think it&#8217;s just gonna be a lot of fun, and I&#8217;m working with a great cast that makes it a little better.
