Anastasia the Musical brings the legend of the lost Russian princess to life with sweeping music, stunning visuals, and a story of identity and hope.

From the Tony Award-winning team behind Ragtime, Stephen Flaherty, Lynn Ahrens, and Terrence McNally, comes this musical adaptation of the Oscar-nominated 1997 animated film.

Groove to iconic songs like “Journey to the Past,” which earned an Oscar nomination for Best Original Song, along with numbers that move from intimate ballads to sweeping ensemble pieces.

After a hit Broadway run and international tour, Anastasia the Musical makes its Australian debut with immersive staging that uses 3D projections to transport audiences from snow-covered Russia to 1920s Paris.

Lavish costumes, historical influences, and global musical styles come together in this limited-run production hailed as “A MONSTER HIT!” by The New York Times.

The Story

Set in the shadow of the Russian Revolution, Anastasia follows Anya, a young woman with no memory of her past. When two conmen discover her resemblance to the missing Grand Duchess, they convince her to join a plan to pose as royalty and claim a reward. Hoping the journey might reveal the truth about who she really is, Anya travels across Europe, from the streets of St. Petersburg to the elegance of 1920s Paris. Could she truly be the lost princess?

Went to the opening night not knowing what to expect and was really surprised how fabulous it all was. Each actor was perfectly cast, the music great, the story line easy to follow and the back drop scenery was a huge thrill to experience. Also to experience a little Swan Lake ballet was a wonderful bonus. Loved it so much that I took a couple of friends with me on last Wednesday and absorbed a little more of the story and characters . Wonder if I can squeeze in another visit before it closes? Way too soon I may add!

A fabulous show, great singing, costumes, acting, fantastic backdrop effects, wonderful music accompaniment, all brilliantly put together in a moving story (even if historically inaccurate, it is the story we would like to believe ) love the muck box song.
