New York Day by Day - 1897 - Broadway Articles Page 8

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas at Macy's Herald Square as America's Largest Department Store prepares to unveil its legendary Christmas windows on Thursday, November 18 at 5pm. This year, spectators will be taken on a magical journey through the eyes of 8-year-old Virginia O'Hanlon who wrote to the New York Sun in 1897 in a quest to prove the existence of Santa Claus. The response, written by newsman Francis P. Church, began with the now-famous line, 'Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus...' and is viewed by those who believe as a symbol of the generosity and spirit of the season. In celebration of this spirit, this season's Christmas windows are more animated and theatrical than ever, as Macy's brings the magic of the Broadway stage to its world famous Broadway windows in its collaboration with PRG Scenic Technologies. Virginia's inspiring true story, now a CBS animated TV Christmas special, 'Yes, Virginia...,' magically comes to life via animation and automation.
