    I along with my friend got to see Anastasia tonight 😊 we both are still in shock by this unbelievably amazing show that is definitely a must see ! I was literally about to spend the amount we paid for the tickets again just to witness the show again ! We had orchestra seats ! But never did i think i would get to see my my favorite singer in one of my favorite broadway shows 😊 thanks to my good friend who after the show noticed that i was literally on the verge of tears if i did not get to at least say Hi to Cody which did not happen it almost did but unfortunately we left before seeing if he was even gonna come out the stage door yes we stood out there in the rainy cold weather and met the lovely Anastasia herself 😊 all i gotta say is my night was made i was 9 or 10 rows back from my favorite singer 😊 yeah lets just say as a 22 year old who is a child at heart i have never cried that much in my life and believe me it does not take much to make me happy but this was honestly one of the best nights ever !!!!!

    Wow, textbook definition of stunt casting. I know not to judge before we see him in action, but this is....massively disappointing. An obscure Australian pop star with zero meaningful theatre experience? Really? The show must be struggling or something. Poor Zach.

  • @regina5135
    @regina5135 6 лет назад +3

    You guys, I respect that some of you would prefer Dima played by the originals (actor and understudy). And I do think they should have let one of the current understudies take on the role because they are very talented too, but let's see what this super talented guy can do, okay? Instead of bringing him down, let's support him to prove himself and not to disappoint us the Fanastasias, and also not to disgrace the Dima Derek and Zach have created😄 Besides, we currently have Ryan Mccartan as our favorite boy next door, so... (and before you protest that Ryan is experienced in musical theatre, yes, I know he was J.D. in Off-Broadway's Heathers).
