Anastasia crawled into our hearts back in 1997. This iconic movie, I remember so well sitting down and watching it being blown away, at the animation, the story, but mostly the music. I spent hours pretending to be Anastasia. When I heard that this movie was going to be made into a Broadway show, I was so ecstatic, but sad because New York only, and on my dime not gonna happen. But when I saw the trailer, I was so happy I cried. Yes I literally cried.
Then I heard it closed and my heart sank, maybe my dreams of seeing Anastasia were not meant to be. But low and behold, we have a National Tour now!? Yes That National Tour started last year in New York, and is now expanding its horizon with 25 new cities expanding into 2020.
