People behind the production
The Secret Life of Bees is a musical adaptation inspired by Sue Monk Kidd's 2001 novel. With music by Duncan Sheik, book by Lynn Nottage, and lyrics by Susan Birkenhead, the show blends gospel, blues, soul, and contemporary theatre to tell a powerful story of identity, community, and resilience. After a celebrated world premiere Off-Broadway run at the Atlantic Theater Company in 2019, the production moved to London for a premiere at the Almeida Theatre in 2023, directed by Sam Gold in New York and Whitney White in London.
