Finding Abigail | Performance Series

Description

History takes center stage in Thames River Heritage Park’s six-part performance series, History Comes Alive in the Park. Through engaging reenactments, lively debates, music, and storytelling, talented performers will bring historical figures and events to life, offering audiences a unique opportunity to experience history beyond the pages of a textbook. 

Amanda Artsea will go into the family tale that made Abigail Hinman famous, the historical sources and the choices she had to make to bring this beloved New London ancestor to life. 

Ticket holders will have access to museum galleries to peruse exhibits prior to each performance! Reception includes light bites, wine, and beer. This series is hosted by Thames River Heritage Park Foundation and Lyman Allyn Art Museum. 

Sponsors include Kitch, The Day, Beer’d Brewing Co., Grand Wine & Spirits, and the Nancy Krant and John Olivia Charitable Fund.
