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.
