Join the DeMatha Players for our presentation of Anastasia: the Musical. Inspired by the Fox Animation movie, Anastasia, the stage musical brings back iconic numbers from the movie like Once Upon A December and A Rumor in St. Petersburg, and also introduces new, amazing music such as Land of Yesterday, The Neva Flows, and more! The story of the last, lost Princess of Tsarist Russia on the run in the Soviet Union makes for a great story of growth and connection.
