Booked this last minute for a little escape from family life and some much-needed me time. 😂 What a beautiful production! So lovely to hear all the familiar music and lyrics I grew up watching, with a bit of everything from romance and comedy to some really moving moments of war effected people having to leave their homeland and seek refuge. The unexpected little glimpse of Swan Lake was such a lovely surprise too! The voices and orchestra were incredible and really drew you in. Such an enjoyable experience and just what I needed for a little solo getaway. ❤️a wee bit sad that I didn't bring the family, they would have loved it too.

I absolutely loved Anastasia the Musical! The performances were incredible, the music was beautiful, and the costumes and stage designs were stunning. The story was captivating and emotional, making it easy to get completely immersed in the world of the musical.

The opening scene began beautifully with a wonderful montage of the family dressed and dancing in grand white costumes. The story was told with great songs, impressive acting and fantastic staging. I just loved the sets and the magnificent costumes. The second half progressed with even more panache with the appearance of the wonderful Rhonda Burchmore and Nancy Hayes. Their experienced stage craft wowed the audience. Its a delightful show which I would recommend to all.

From the stunning costumes and breathtaking sets to the beautiful music and incredible performances, every moment was enchanting. I was completely swept away by the story, the romance, and the sense of wonder that filled the theatre. It felt like stepping into a fairytale, and I was mesmerised from the opening scene to the final curtain. A truly unforgettable Broadway experience that left me with a heart full of magic. If you get the chance to see Anastasia, don’t miss it!

Anastasia was everything I had hoped that it would be and more. The raw talent of the cast in every aspect - singing, dancing and acting - was phenomenal. The sets and costumes were beautiful. I feel privileged to have watched such a top end production. The Lyric Theatre was a perfect venue for the show with a great atmosphere, exceptional acoustics and delicious popcorn! I cannot recommend Anastasia The Musical enough.
