ANASTASIA, the romantic and adventure-filled new musical inspired by the beloved film, will play at Broadway In Chicago’s James M. Nederlander Theatre for a limited two-week engagement from March 26 through April 7.
From the Tony Award®-winning creators of the Broadway classic Ragtime, ANASTASIA is a dazzling new show that transports us from the twilight of the Russian Empire to the euphoria of Paris in the 1920s, as a brave young woman sets out to discover the mystery of her past. Pursued by a ruthless Soviet officer determined to silence her, Anya enlists the aid of a dashing conman and a lovable ex-aristocrat. Together, they embark on an epic adventure to help her find home, love, and family.
This 2017 Broadway hit features book by celebrated playwright Terrence McNally, a lush new score by Stephen Flaherty (music) and Lynn Ahrens (lyrics) that features favorites "Journey to the Past” and “Once Upon a December,” and direction by Tony Award® winner Darko Tresnjak.
