musical theatre challenge: 2/3 costumes | anya’s red gown (anastasia) [insp] 
I want the clothes to support the story. I don’t want them to be what they take from the production when they leave. It should be a seamless apart of the world and the story. I want them to take my work as part of the whole and that you almost don’t notice it, because it is the perfect thing for that world and you can’t imagine it any other way. - Linda Cho, costume designer

The parallels my mind is making from Anya to Mamoru. A.k.a Princess Anastasia and Prince Endymion:
Teenage orphans with lack of identity due to memory loss.
Tumblr media
Growing up having dreams every night connected to a life they used to have where they were royalty until their kingdoms fell to war and rebellion:
Music box that triggers their memories:
Tumblr media
Context: I ended up having a lot of songs from the Anastasia musical on my playlist and one of the songs In My Dreams is just feeding my Mamo brainrot because, change a few lines and he could sing this.
[Diaclaimer, I haven't watched the musical but judging from the songs, I'd say it does not end the same way the movie does, so the parallel I'm making is mostly referring to the Don Bluth film with exception of this song from Broadway]
First verse:
'They said I was found
By the side of a road
There were tracks all around
It had recently snowed
In the darkness and cold
The wind in the trees
A girl with no name
And no memories, but these
Rain against a window
Sheets upon a bed
Terrifying nurses
Whispering overhead
“Call the child Anya
Give the child a hat”
I don’t know a thing before that'
Mamoru parallel:
Woke up in a hospital at age 6, doesn't recall his name or parents, nurses trying to figure out what to do with him.
Then this verse:
'You don’t know what it’s like
Not to know who you are
To have lived in the shadows
And travel this far
I’ve seen flashes of fire
Heard the echos of screams
But I still have this faith
In the truth of my dreams
In my dreams
It’s all real
And my heart has so much to reveal
And my dreams
Seem to say
“Don’t be afraid to go on
Don’t give up hope
Come what may”
I know it all will come back
One day'
Mamoru parallel: Do I need to explain? He's definitely had these very words going through his mind for the last 10 years of his life.
And then the parallels between Usa and Mamo and Dimitri and Anya:
Don't get along with their love interest at first:
Tumblr media
They fall in love as they "search for" a missing princess:
Tumblr media
Love interest turns out to be someone they knew from their past:
Tumblr media
They regain their memories, decide to give up royalty in favor of a life with love interest. (Give or take 100 years in Usamamo's case)
Tumblr media
But also Anastasia is just a movie I've loved since I was a kid. And I'm honestly just really intrigued by the story and how a mystery from real life history, has turned into a beloved fictional romance.
The Sailor Moon parallel is just my mental illness 💀

I'm really confused about the musical's changes to the Dimitri & Anastasia relationship. Yes, they couldn't keep the Dimitri saves her child aspect. But they could keep the part where he worked at the palace and suggest that he and Anya had known each other as children and mayne liked each other, like an echo of the original movie which suggested that Dimitri probably had a little crush on her when he was small. But no. Instead we get : Oh they saw each other once as a kid at a parade and he greeted her in the crowd and their eyes met leading to a love at first sight that lasted their whole lives... Wtf seriously ? It's rubbish ! Especially since Dimitri lost a lot of his anti-hero substance in the musical. Yes, he's still a scammer but he's much more tender and smooth than his film counterpart ! For what ? Again, transform Anya's personality, I can still understand, to make her more like a Disney princess. But why Dimitri ?! My god... the musical is great to listen to and the character of Gleb fantastic, but they massacred my darling Dimitri. I love Gleb, but facing Dimitri from the original film, there is no match. But against the Dimitri of the musical, yes, Gleb wins. Why every time a villain in love is created, people prefer to invent a bland love interest ?!

I love how in the Anastasia musical, Anastasia basically looks Gleb dead in the eye while he’s got a gun pulled on her and goes “do it, pussy”

So I was watching a video about overlapping melodies in musicals and remembering how BRILLIANT Quartet at the Ballet from Broadway Anastasia is.
Not only is it a very nicely done example of grand polyphonic pieces in musicals where the characters are singing separate melodies that come from earlier in the show (think tonight quintet or one day more), they’re singing just the tunes of those earlier themes, with unique lyrics. In addition, the music ALSO flawlessly works in the theme from Swan Lake, AND the action happening on the stage of the ballet reflects the characters’ conflicts (which this post talks about in detail)
Anyways it’s just a really cool song and shout out to Stephen flaherty for some great composition.
Here’s the video if you want to check it out:
