Once Upon An August

So . . . . last August, I had the great experience of seeing my first broadway show, Anastasia! This musical has became one of my favorites, ever since the day I first came across the song: In A Crowd Of Thousands online. Getting to see this show last year, was one of the highlights of my Summer.

I thought that with all this pandemic stuff going on and with all the plays being canceled this year, that I’d share a little bit about the musical and my experience.

It has a little bit of something in it for everyone!

All the pictures in this post were taken from Google.

Family

Beautiful Costumes

Great singing

Dimitri sings “My Petersburg.”

“I'll bless my homeland till I die.”
This was actually one of my favorite moments in the show.
Something about the quiet sadness of this song is just beautiful.

Dancing

“Paris Holds The Key (To Your Heart).”

Vlad and Dimitri, teaching Anya how to dance.

The dancing was so fun!

A Villan

Gleb and Anya

Comedy

“Finally, a Russian telephone that actually works. Sir, that was a joke.”

Vlad and Countess Lily.
This is the only part of the show that I don't like.
A scandalous relationship, why?

Romance

Vlad, Anya, and Dimitri.

Amazing sets, props, and special effects.

Ballet

Swan Lake.

A Happy Ending!

“Do you remember the last time you saw Anastasia?”

Do you like or dislike this musical? Has anyone else seen this show?

Let me know what you think in the comments!

God Bless,
