The Fantastic Toyshop in Hartford
Sat Dec 7, 2024
7:00pm ET
Age: All Ages
Price: $15 to $30
It’s 1943, and it's Christmas Eve in Hartford. Virginia and her mother are preparing for the holiday. With Virginia’s father away at war, the season does not feel the same, but Virginia is still determined to make this Christmas special. The G.Fox & Co. Toyshop is the most fantastic place during Christmastime in the city.
Virginia and her mother visit the store and are greeted by Beatrice Fox Auerbach herself. Beatrice shows all the children her magical dancing dolls. The children are delighted, but Virginia has just one true wish: for her father to be with them this Christmas.
