Botanic Garden the Musical grows out of a theatrical world that audiences have already embraced.

“It’s a play about life, about coping with the comedy and tragedy of living; it’s a drama laced with wit and humor, insight and wisdom.”

Chicago Theater Review, reviewing Botanic Garden (stage play)

“The ending is so poignant and cathartic that this reviewer was moved to tears.”

ChicagoCritic.com, reviewing Botanic Garden (stage play)

“Our audience deeply identified with the story about trials and joys of long-term relationships, loss and renewal.”

Jill Lund, Program Director, reviewing Botanic Garden (stage play)

“All should be so lucky as to have a partner with whom they could be so real and with whom they could ‘spark.’ I would see it again in a heartbeat.”

Thomas Suk, audience member, Botanic Garden (stage play)
