Been a couple weeks since we closed, but I had to post about Anastasia! This show was an absolute joy to be a part of, and it’s because of all the amazing beautiful people who made this show happen!! Never thought I’d play a character like Dimitry, and a special thank you to the fantastic @sarah.c.bw for trusting me to bring him to life😁

I am beyond grateful to have had the opportunity to be a part of this production of Anastasia for @artsonepresents. Not only was this my first ever Arts One production but it was also my first ever musical. Truly an amazing time and such a pleasure

There are simply not enough words to describe what this production meant to me. After profusely sobbing in the nosebleeds of a broadway theater when I was 12, Anastasia quickly became a dream show for me. I will say, I never even thought about the possibility that I could be considered for one of the featured dancers. For those of you who have known me for a while, you know that the absolute last thing I consider myself to be is a dancer. This show pushed me out of my comfort zone in ways that I could only have dreamed of even just a year ago. I am used to worrying about memorizing lines or being able to hit a note correctly, and just resolving that the dancing aspect will be what it is. My entire job in this show, of course, was to dance. Reading the cast list, I laughed. I truly did not believe in myself or my abilities at all. In the end, being given a chance, and being SEEN as a performer for what felt like the first time in years, was such a pivotal moment for me - as a person and as an artist. I feel that I have grown so much through this show. I have made friendships that I hope to keep forever. I have made connections with so many beautiful artists that I hope to work with in the future. I have rediscovered my love for performing, remembering why I ever decided I may want to do this in the first place. Most shockingly, I have discovered, for the first time in my life, a deep love and appreciation for dance. To everyone who worked on this show, although it may sound like a cliche, you really have changed my life. Thank you for being nothing but encouraging, and for genuinely making me feel loved and valued. You have no idea how much I needed this. I love you all, and I will never forget Anastasia 🤍🤍
