just saw the new italian non-replica anastasiaaaaaa so here's some notes, the usual drill, ignore me. when i'll relisten i'll probably write some more thoughts on the new translations
at the end of the prologue the several chandeliers hanging from the ceiling of the winter palace fall on the nobles (very phantom-y), who are trying to hold the door closed while snowy wind slams it open
the abandoned palace was dark and dusty, closer to what it looks like in the cartoon, and i loved it
at the end of in my dreams the curtain hanging behind anya, dmitry and vlad briefly becomes transparent and we see the ghosts of the romanovs
one stanza of once upon a december is sung by young anastasia, as the older one is surrounded by the ghosts
her father is the last one to disappear, after kissing her on the forehead she almost chases him offstage
the effects for the train were lovely, they had the lights and smoke of the locomotive, and then a velarium styled like train car windows the characters could look out of came down. very very effective
while anya sings journey to the past, dmitry and vlad are seen through a velarium behind her, bickering until vlad looks actually hurt and looks down, a little sad. when she reaches the "family" part, dmitry gives him a little hug to cheer him up, and vlad gives him something to drink :')
when she repeats the verse and mentions "love", her and dmitry are both kneeling, on opposite sides of the velarium, and they turn towards each other, though not really seeing one another :')
in a crowd of thousands is sang while anya is getting dressed for the theater behind a screen, leaning out to deliver her parts, and dmitry is waiting for her. so when she realises she remembered seeing him she walks out in the blue dress, and that's when he drops to his knees
they removed most of the swan lake waltz from quartet at the ballet and i'm not super sure i liked that, but it does sound more haunting, ending with the once upon a december melody as the ballerina fouettes in the background
the whole romanov family slowly walked in when anya played the music box for her grandmother, and when she finally called out "anastasia", it was little anya who ran to hug her :')
they cut everything to win :((((
and the press conference :(
anya doesn't step on the suitcase to kiss dmitry at the end, he's still holding it and then drops it loudly when their lips collide. super cute
(separate and numerous gleb notes incoming because they really made him extremely unwell and unhinged. also brian boccuni has a wonderful voice)
gleb meets anya for the first time at the police station! their earlier meeting in the street is cut, as is the bit about her eyes. he turns, sees her for the first time and immediately goes deer in the headlights, and it's definitely meant to be read as him being immediately conflicted: both starstruck AND beginning to confusedly recognise her
when speaking about his father's death, he starts to properly cry (and calls him "papà", so "dad", a little more affectionate than "father"). then, at the mention of the tsar, he smashes a teacup to the ground (which made the little boy next to me jump in fear)
still is staged. well. with him taking his shirt off and whipping himself. very hellfire of him
at the beginning of neva flows reprise anya tries to run past him, so he throws her to the ground, grabs her and delivers the first verses right in her face. he comes veeery close to kissing her
and then, after "i think you are anastasia", he points the gun to his head. anya screams "no" and jumps to stop him. slowly, she makes him lower it, takes it from him and leaves it on the ground
she's the one who says "good luck, comrade" before leaving to get dmitry, leaving him to turn towards the door behind which the journalists are chanting anastasia's name

So I went to see the Mexican production of Anastasia and I have a lot of feelings and thoughts:
Like the tour and international productions, there's a cut from Learn to Do It, and Crossing a Bridge is replaced with Paris Holds the Key (Reprise)- which is a damn shame because if there ever was an Anya that could do justice to Crossing a Bridge that's Mariana Dávila (apparently, she has an almost three octave range? The fuck?!)
Javier Manente (Dmitry) is 1.86m (6'2'') and Mariana Dávila (Anya) is 1.56m (5'2'') which is just insane.
And so Javi honors the ancient Dima tradition of being more of a mover than a dancer, way too tall, handsome and with the voice of an angel 🥰
Mariana is a powerhouse - her voice is stunning and her rendition of In My Dreams will haunt me for months.
Christy and Derek's dynamic was very confrontational for Act 1, very movie Dimya, while Mariana and Javi are more of a hopeful/cynic vibe which also works very well.
Manuel Corta's Vlad is more of a tenor than a baritone so that makes some of the harmonies sound a little hollow but that's me nitpicking because his voice is lovely.
He is short, taller than Anya but shorter than Lily - which makes for a few comedic beats to hit harder, mainly choreography and the line "from the first moment I saw you, I knew I was beneath you".
Carlos Quezada's Gleb is probably the slimiest I've seen yet (Ramin, Max and Constantine). In the scene in his office, instead of grabbing Anya by the arm to stop her from leaving, he grabs her by the waist and talks into her hair?!?! It doesn't help that the translation of Still emphasizes how childlike and innocent Anya is (yikes 😬). The vibes are fatal attraction and the last confrontation feels very much like Anya would rather die than be Gleb's which is a different take for sure.
Even if I didn't love his take on the character, his voice was incredible, he played up the growl at the end of Still into an almost metal/rock thing that I loved
(I just found out that he previously played Scar in The Lion King and Javert in Les Mis which makes so much sense in retrospect)
All song translations are the same as the Madrid production, except for Journey to the Past where they use the translation from the movie (God I wish they had done that for Once Upon a December too)
In the almost kiss for In a Crowd of Thousands they got so close 👀 Christy and Derek left a little room for Jesus between them and usually grabbed each other by the forearms. My boy Javi went straight to cup Mariana's face and touch her hair while she touched his hands and tugged at his shirt!!! Real romantic stuff
Their voices sound so nice together (if you haven't heard their cover of Hadestown you should)
Lily was fucking incredible. The dance scenes! I always thought it was crazy that she had two consecutive dance heavy numbers and she delivered!!! Her singing was superb at all times.
The ballet number was so good!!! All the dancers got a big ovation
Experiencing Stay I Pray You live? I felt it inside my chest, I was so close to tears! (I missed Constantine's voice though 😩)
Irasema Terrazas as The Dowager was amazing, she has that old timey, 1940s starlet quality to her voice that is just mesmerizing.
The costumes are very pretty, lovely quality, and almost the same as Broadway's. If I remember correctly, the ones that were markedly different in terms of fabric were Lily's Neva dress and press dress, and Gleb's coat. The silhouettes are pretty much the same (though The Paris Holds the Key dress was very much a maxi skirt on Mariana 🤭)

2, 4, and 8 for Avigeya???
2) Her best friends are Dimitri and Vlad. I'd say despite Dimitri and Vlad having been around the palace a lot (going by movie canon for Dimitri) they don't recognize her. I'd have to draw her when she younger to show why but they also didn't cross paths for a good five years after the revolution. Before the revolution however her best friend was Anastasia/Anya they only have a few months difference in age, they're half-sisters and Avigeya would have probably become Anya's lady in waiting.
4) Gosh I can think of several for Avigeya and Gleb 😅 All I Ask Of You, El Tango De Roxanne, Still/The Neva Flows (Reprise) and Touchy Feely Fool were the ones I put on her playlist while specifically thinking about them.
8) Avigeya wanted to be an opera singer when she was younger so she's kept up with her singing. She's also a talented seamstress. She likes to sew, often singing as she does. While she does sell a lot of the things she makes she's got a soft heart and always ends up both underpricing and giving things away, much to Dimitri's dismay.

Okay the first that popped up was a song from specifically the Dutch version of Anastasia, a very old hyperfixation so I AM going to spin again just so you get a lyric you might actually understand but this is the lyric from that song (it's also a reprise in a musical so a very limited amount of lyrics to choose from)(that being said the score from this musical still 100% slaps so highly recommend anyone listen to Anastasia):
Dat alles door die ene dans
Okay second try and this one ACTUALLY is a full song which also just happens to be one of my favorite Conan Gray songs !!!
You said, "Distance brings fondness", but guess not with us / The only mistake that we didn't make was run
(For some reason I think this song is very Wilmon coded, but specifically s2 Wilmon)
Send me a ♾ and get a random lyric!

*mother knows best (reprise) playing in the background*

aka i made Stillborn Danny art and its just Vlad and Danny having one of their explosive arguments
Ignore Danny's wonky arm proportions he didn't have any from the elbow down in the initial drawing (it was a half-body drawing from the waist up) but I added them on when i transferred it to digital, anddd I color them in on mobile procreate
Vlad is not immune to outfit redesigns. What better way to embrace the fact that you're forever going to be a 20-something year old college student as a ghost than to wear a ribcage corset??
They've been scaled to size because Vlad's a 7'5" fuck and Danny is a 5 foot nothing malnourished teenager, and I'm still learning how to do heights next to each other. Just know that in my heart of hearts, Danny should be eye level with Vlad's elbow.

☔Is there a fic concept you have that you'd like to just explain and share because you're not sure you'll ever write it? If so, what is it?
☔Is there a fic concept you have that you'd like to just explain and share because you're not sure you'll ever write it? If so, what is it?
omg i have so many of these it's embarrassing!!! i can't remember what i've shared on here but.... i want a dimya rogue one au so so so bad.
listen. it would only appeal to Me. the overlap is so narrow lol. but god.... god it would hit. i think i wrote a tentative outline of what it would entail but never wrote out any of the prose and idk if i want to put in the effort, frankly bc writing in the star wars universe is a little daunting asjdhfk. i think there are like some minor details that i'm struggling to make work in my mind and then i start to think i'm just forcing an idea only i would be interested in reading. but overall... it would work.
anya would be the daughter of a former senator and she witnesses her parents getting taken away when she's very young for reasons she doesn't understand, and then she hides with her grandmother (who plays the saw gerrera role in this), but then eventually ends up alone and fighting for herself on the streets. dmitry would have to be a bit of a blend of han and cassian i think-- he's got the cold detachment and self hatred that cassian does (<3) but he is also a silly goose, so. han. he was a smuggler/forger but then was recruited and now works for rebel intelligence, his father was a separatist. he doesn't follow protocol very well but he gets his work done so they tolerate him lol. and vlad would play the role of k2so <3 and gleb is of course krennic/space javert, a middle management officer with a new promotion
i think to me why i want this to work so bad is bc, thematically, what these stories say about identity and purpose are so similar. jyn and anya are both so scrappy and desperate for something to hope for, i feel like that would mesh well. and their stories are so tied to the concept of identity and home (!!!!!!), the scene at the end where krennic (gleb) asks her, after encountering her so many times, and jyn (anya) stands taller and embraces her name,,,, it's so similar to the still/neva flows reprise it makes me so crazy !!!!!!
and god, the romance. two people who are very lost and have lost Everything,,,, somehow find each other. and though they are typically slow to trust and are used to betrayal they meet each other and it's just like. they know they can trust this person, somehow. "trust goes both ways." and don't even get me started on the "I'm not used to people sticking around when things go bad." "Welcome home." exchange,,, i will go crazy. and they inspire each other to be better and there's that spark of hope again and for once they're not surviving they're actually living with purpose again.... it's so good. it's so dimya, thematically. "the mirror hurts" etc etc. and on a less serious note there's the complete disregard of personal space, the mindless and comfy touching, the arguing, and the height difference. it's got everything you could ask for.
so this is the fic i want... so bad. but it's been so many years since i originally had the thought and idk if i'm brave enough to venture into the star wars lore lol so idk if it will ever happen. but know this: it would be so good!!!!!
