Experience the enchanting journey of Anastasia, a captivating musical that transports audiences from the twilight of the Russian Empire to the vibrant streets of 1920s Paris. Anya, a spirited young woman with a mysterious past, embarks on an adventure to uncover her true identity. Joined by a charming con man and lovable ex-aristocrat, she faces challenges and discovers love, courage, and the meaning of home. With a book by Terrence McNally, music by Stephen Flaherty, and lyrics by Lynn Ahrens, this production brings to life the timeless story inspired by the 1997 animated film. Directed by Lara Brooks, choreographed by Aleksander Teçza, and musically directed by Julie Jordan Gunn, Anastasia is a spellbinding tale of self-discovery and hope.
