About the musical:

Inspired by the beloved films, 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 conman and a lovable ex-aristocrat. Together, they embark on an epic adventure to help her find home, love, and family. This spectacular musical includes songs from the hit animated film, “Journey to the Past” and “Once Upon a December.”

The show will run from June 6-29, at 7:30 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays and 2p.m. on Sundays.

Tickets are available online.

The musical, directed by Cassidy Vlietstra, will be the final production in Twin City Players’ 92nd Mainstage Season.
