Book
Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - For her first venture into music-theatre, Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Marsha Norman, in collaboration with composer Lucy Simon, achieved Broadway success with the moving book and lyrics she adapted from Frances Hodgson Burnett's beloved 1911 novel, The Secret Garden. The story of 10-year-old orphan Mary Lennox and her search for friendship, love and an understanding of the past in her lonely uncle-guardian's locked garden has often been dramatized for the stage, the screen, radio and television, but never before has it been so fully and imaginatively realized. Using the classic form of the traditional American musical, Norman has fashioned a faithful rendition of her source which is equally appealing to children and adults, to devotees of the novel and to Secret Garden newcomers as well.

Book
Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - A lavishly produced (and expensive) retelling of the popular Broadway musical: a tongue-in-cheek amalgam of 'Red Riding Hood,' 'Jack and the Beanstalk,' 'Cinderella,' and 'Rapunzel,' with a darker second-act sequel. Adults and teen-agers will be most amused by the humor here - especially the sly modern dialogue, much of it incorporating the show's adroitly phrased lyrics; and there are a good many bits that are more appropriate to a mature audience than to lit, tie children (e.g., Rapunzel receiving her prince, modestly posed but quite bare; Cinderella's prince seducing the Baker's Wife). On the other hand, older children will enjoy the lively action and the extension of these familiar stories - the giant's wife turns up seeking revenge, and there are a number of new alliances as well as some unexpected deaths in the second act. The transposition from the stage has been achieved with unusual panache; and the generous, colorful illustrations are splashy and dramatic, appropriately capturing moments satirical (Red Riding Hood elegantly dressed in the wolf's skin), idyllic (a wedding dance amid pink blossoms), or fearsome (the Baker's Wife about to be trampled by a giant). Good fun. (Kirkus Reviews).
