In this L.A. Theatre Works original commission, playwright Jeanne Sakata has created a new audio adaptation of Frances Hodgson Burnett’s beloved classic. Mary Lennox is an orphaned 10-year-old who is sent to live with her uncle in his country house on the moors. Her new life is almost unbearable, but when she hears stories of the estate’s mysterious, abandoned garden she’s determined to discover its secrets.

Dr. Melanie Laidlaw is a scientist developing the first use of ICSI, short for intracytoplasmic sperm injection. Her collaborator, Dr. Felix Frankenthaler, turns out to have his own ideas about how to implement their new procedure. The wild card is Melanie’s new lover, Menachem Dvir, a fellow scientist. Carl Djerassi’s darkly comic ménage-à-trois plays out not only in bedrooms and labs, but also in test tubes and under the microscope. Includes an interview with Liza Mundy, a staff writer at the Washington Post and the author of Everything Conceivable: How Assisted Reproduction Is Changing Men, Women, and the World.
