Secondhand Lions: A New Musical is based on the 2003 movie of the same name. Music and lyrics for the musical were written by Alan Zachary and Michael Weiner, who also wrote First Date.[1] The book was by Rupert Holmes.

Production

The show premiered from September 6 to October 7, 2013 at The 5th Avenue Theatre in Seattle, Washington.[2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]

The show was directed by Scott Schwartz, who directed Golda's Balcony and co-directed Jane Eyre on Broadway. Scott Schwartz was appointed Artistic Director of the Bay Street Theatre in Sag Harbor, New York in 2013.[10]

Plot

Walter, a young boy, is unwillingly dropped off unannounced, by his mother, Mae, at his two great-uncle’s farmhouse in Texas for the summer. The uncles, Hub and Garth, recently bought the farm, returning after a long time with a secretly earned fortune. Over the course of the summer, Walter tries to find the method in which his uncles gained money, and what they did when in their absence. The tale reveals the uncles' courage and bravery in their prime.

Differences from the Film
  • Jane, the girl across the pond, is an added character in the musical.
  • The ‘relatives’ in the film that arrive to learn about the uncle’s fortune are omitted in the musical.
  • There are no live animals in the musical.
  • Jasmine, in the movie, is renamed Samira.
