Anastasia the musical

The Chapel of the Ascension

The University of Chichester Conservatoire proudly presents Anastasia: The Musical in Concert, the Conservatoire's 2026 Freshers Musical. This special production welcomes the newest members of the Conservatoire into its vibrant performance community. Led by returning students, the production celebrates collaboration across year groups, with some of our new Freshers making their Conservatoire debut as part of the Scratch Ensemble during the final performance. Performed by students from across the Conservatoire, Anastasia tells the inspiring story of one young woman's search for identity, family and home. Featuring a soaring score including Journey to the Past, Once Upon a December and My Petersburg, this concert performance showcases the exceptional talent, artistry and professionalism that define the University of Chichester Conservatoire. Join us for an unforgettable evening of live musical theatre as we celebrate the beginning of a new academic year and welcome the next generation of performers to our Conservatoire community.
