(RED BANK, NJ) -- The national tour of Anastasia comes to Count Basie Center for the Arts for performances on February 1-2 at 7:30pm. Inspired by the beloved films, the romantic and adventure-filled new musical Anastasia is on a journey to Red Bank at last!
From the Tony Award®-winning creators of the Broadway classic Ragtime, this dazzling show transports us from the twilight of the Russian Empire to the euphoria of Paris in the 1920s, as a brave young woman sets out to discover the mystery of her past. Pursued by a ruthless Soviet officer determined to silence her, Anya enlists the aid of a dashing conman and a lovable ex-aristocrat. Together, they embark on an epic adventure to help her find home, love, and family.
Anastasia features a book by celebrated playwright Terrence McNally, a lush new score by Stephen Flaherty (music) and Lynn Ahrens (lyrics) based on original direction by Tony Award® winner Darko Tresnjak with choreography by Peggy Hickey and tour direction by Sarah Hartmann.
Presented by Count Basie Center for the Arts. Tickets range from $49-$89 and are available for purchase online.
