A one-night-only semi-staged concert performance of Anastasia: The Musical will be held in February at Lincoln Center. Manhattan Concert Productions will present the performance as part of its Broadway Series. The event will take place at David Geffen Hall on February 17, 2025.

Directed by Broadway veterans Sarah Hartmann and Tom Murray, the production will feature a 400-voice chorus, the renowned New York City Chamber Orchestra, and a cast led by Christy Altomare as Anya, John Bolton as Vlad, Jordan Donica as Gleb, Alex Joseph Grayson as Dmitry, Mary Beth Peil as Dowager Empress, and Rachel York as Countess Lily.

From the Tony Award-winning team of Terrence McNally, Stephen Flaherty, and Lynn Ahrens, Anastasia follows a young woman on a thrilling journey to uncover the truth about her past. With the help of a charming con man and a lovable ex-aristocrat, Anya races across Europe, pursued by a determined Soviet officer, in a story filled with adventure, courage, and love.
