Show Notes
ANASTASIA is a musical based on a rumor that has stood the test of time and is a testament to the stories we tell during our "darkest Decembers." Joining us this week to discuss it is a young man who's just beginning to tell his own story, and he's earned quite the platform to do so. Damson Chola Jr. won the Jimmy Awards earlier this year and, thanks to incredible performing arts support in his Texas hometown, already has this epic musical on his resume. Don't miss this conversation filled with history, animation, and heart.
