Review: Karis Martin Shines as Anastasia at The Royal Theatre in Benton

Princess Anastasia has been found at the Royal Theatre in Benton. Seriously, I am a starry-heart eyes believer that Karis Martin is the real lost princess. There is no way you can tell me otherwise, and if you don't believe me, go see for yourself. This is your last weekend to catch Anastasia, and trust me, you do not want to miss it. Directed by Jeremy Clay, with Assistant Director Aubree Blankenship, Co-Music Directors Justin and Heidi McCartney, and Choreographer Jordyn Purtle, this sweeping musical adventure is filled with romance, humor, and enough theatrical magic to leave audiences completely enchanted.
