Get a GLIMPSE into the heart of the Wilmington born musical that New York’s Backstage hails as “INCREDIBLE…BEAUTIFUL…INTRICATE”. Drawn by her own longing for children and a connection to a tale she can’t fully understand Sarah uncovers the mystery of a childless toy, bringing hope and fulfillment to the lives of those she meets along the way, and ultimately, to her own.
