Why You Won't Want to Miss The Anastasia File at Newcastle Theatre Royal
One of history's great conspiracy theories comes to life on stage at Newcastle Theatre Royal this autumn in The Anastasia File!
In 1918, Tsar Nicholas II and his family are brutally executed by the Bolsheviks. Two years later, a mysterious woman is rescued from a canal in Berlin following a failed suicide attempt.
As doctors and police try to uncover her identity, she begins to reveal details about her past that suggest she could be Grand Duchess Anastasia, the youngest daughter of the Tsar and heir to the Romanov fortune.
Inspired by the true story of Anne Manahan and her extraordinary 30-year battle for recognition, The Anastasia File explores a mystery that has fascinated the world for more than a century.
With Simon Shepherd (Peak Practice), Ashley D. Gayle (The Shawshank Redemption) and Rosie Thomson (EastEnders), this thrilling and atmospheric drama will have you questioning what is fact, what is fiction – and whether the truth can ever truly be known.
