‘Anastasia’ at Lincoln Park
Lincoln Park Performing Arts Center in Midland continues its 2024-2025 Clearview Federal Credit Union Subscription Series, Raise Your Voice! with the musical Anastasia in the MainStage Theater for six performances – Friday, May 2 to Sunday, May 4, and Friday, May 9 to Sunday, May 11.
Inspired by the 20th Century Fox Animation film of the same name, Anastasia 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 con man and a lovable ex-aristocrat. Together, they embark on an epic adventure to help her find home, love, and family. From the Tony Award-winning creative team of Lynn Ahrens and Pittsburgh’s own Stephen Flaherty, Anastasia boasts a memorable score featuring songs such as “Once Upon a December” and the show-stopping “Journey to the Past.”
“Whether you are familiar with the 1997 animated film, or the real-life story of the Romanov family or not, Anastasia is a must-see production for any musical theatre lover,” said Justin Fortunato, Producing Artistic Director of Lincoln Park Performing Arts Center. “Family friendly with a gorgeous musical score, Anastasia is a musical spectacular about discovering who you are and defining who you’re meant to be.”
