    The musical ‘Anastasia’ plays Foxwoods

    “Anastasia” has quite a pedigree.

    The book for this stage musical is by Terrence McNally, whose Broadway credits include “Love! Valour! Compassion!,” ”Master Class” and “Kiss of the Spider Woman.’

    Anastasia

    The songs are by Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty, who also collaborated on “Seussical” and “Once on This Island.”

    The story is pulled from the 1997 animated film, which focuses on a young woman who has amnesia and is trying to find out who she is. Is she a surviving member of the ruling Romanov family killed during the Russian Revolution?

    “Anastasia” is playing at Foxwoods from Thursday through Sunday, and the run is part of the Foxwoods Broadway Series.

    “Anastasia,” Great Cedar Showroom, Foxwoods; shows at 8 p.m. Thursday-Sat., and 2 p.m. Sat. and Sun.; $45-$75; foxwoods.com.
