Step back nearly 300 years and experience the founding of Wilton Parish through this immersive walking theater event at historic Sharp Hill Cemetery. Guided by a young girl named Faith, visitors will encounter the men and women whose determination, sacrifice, and vision helped establish Wilton Congregational Church in 1726.

Presented by the Wilton Historical Society, Wilton Congregational Church, and ArtSynergy Productions, this unique outdoor performance brings local history to life among the gravestones of Wilton's earliest settlers.

Performances begin at 11:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. and last approximately one hour.
