The Broadway production of ANASTASIA is coming to Orange County and will be performing at Segerstrom Center for the Arts November 5 – 17, 2019 in Segerstrom Hall.
“This dazzling show 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.”

ANASTASIA completed its two-year Broadway run on March 31, 2019 at the Broadhurst Theatre (235 West 44th Street) with critics exclaiming “Ahrens and Flaherty have chosen the right moments to musicalize, and their score here sounds complete and full — one of the season’s strongest! (NBC)” and “Smartly adapted by Terrence McNally, Anastasia is a sweeping adventure, romance and historical epic whose fine craftsmanship will satisfy musical-theater fans (Time Out).” The new musical played to sold out crowds on Broadway after opening in April 2017, in addition to garnering multiple Tony, Drama Desk and Outer Critics Circle awards and nominations. The original Broadway cast recording is available at BroadwayRecords.com, Amazon.com and iTunes which includes “Journey to the Past”, “In My Dreams”, “Still” and “My Petersburg.”
