Christy Altomare - Journey to the Past | Final Performance (March 31, 2019)

[@divalicious4888]

She SANG that song. And believee every word of it.

[@AlexisLederArt]

She truly did believe every word of it. Beautiful.

[@dani-xu2ex]

i was there! the applause/standing o went on for like five more minutes after she finished, and people were cheering her name. my sister and i were sobbing, it was fantastic. she also spent (i think) about 5 hours at the stage door that night to talk to *everyone*. christy altomare is truly incredible

[@angelofmusic1026]

So incredible!

[@eloramaxwell7020]

She had tears in her eyes the entire performance. omg

[@alexisblake2634]

Christy Altomare said that the song Journey To The Past never gets old and it tears her up. Maybe it’s because her heart exploded

[@fidindingnemolovee]

so did i omg

[@calosmarket4540]

I teared up when I saw her tears

[@ManongChito]

Maybe because this is the end of her stint as Anastacia. Last performances for leads are usually emotional.

[@laurahaley9131]

You can just see how passionate she is playing Anya. 😍

[@vinh_g_nguyen]

I'm crying!!! You can just feel how much this role meant to her and how passionate she is about it!

[@soulbeliever02]

I understand it was the last performance and people were excited, but I wish I could hear her finish that last note. :/

[@mangomochi563]

Yes omg

the way she holds out ‘home’ longer than she should’ve really makes me tear up EVERY. TIME. soaking in every little moment

[@mopeterson0502]

I was so blessed to see this show before it closed with Christy as Anya. I really wish it was still open, it was honestly one of the most beautiful shows I have ever had the honor to see.

[@victorialee7191]

I've never cried from a non-sad song but this brought me completely to tears. I love her so much 😭😭

[@emmaj4008]

You can tell how grateful she was to have this role. She was absolutely perfect in it too ❤❤❤

[@vogelmeister6809]

2:14 is the moment ive pinpointed when she starts o get truly emotional

[@lucasb.6478]

OMG I'm crying a lot. She is such an actress, she is really feeling the role and that is so immersive and amazing! It is impossible not to feel this song with such a performance. Thanks, this is one of the best videos I've ever saw (BTW, sorry 'bout my English, I am Brazilian and I am daily learning the language, love you guys)

[@genevieveowusu885]

Awww! That's okay! 💕

Dude, don’t sweat it: Your English is better than most Americans.

[@lauriefaithprescott]

She is a star 🌟 those were real tears i know it. She carried those notes. She had every feeling i absolutely loved it and she deserved that standing ovation.

[@ryonotrio6904]

I want theatre back ;(

[@justcameron4765]

ikr :((

[@kat_lynn_b3315]

Put off watching this cause I knew I'd cry. I was devastated that it closed, but it also brings me joy seeing. Christy is always to glass half ful and grateful. You can see it in her eyes that she's choosing to relish this rather than be sad it's over

[@jameshook7177]

I had the fortune of being at that performance. I cried then and I cried watching this video. Thanks for sharing!!

[@watermelanie9387]

I loved this show. Christy was absolute perfection. I was one of the lucky ones who got to see it pre-Broadway on Hartford Stage. The entire cast was electric and SO unbelievably kind. I'm so glad Christy got to run the show the whole way through, though it definitely deserves to still be on Broadway.

[@lloroarcoiris]

Dude THAT was giving emotion to a song AAAAAAAAAA

She’s so good!! I’m preforming this and I want to be just like her when I’m older!!

[@rubstell1891]

Meeting her was the most magical experience ❤ she truly is such an amazing actress and human being!!

[@crystalr6461]

But you don't clap and make a sound until the last note it done.

[@amberangel112]

that rule goes out the window during final performances

[@grayk7455]

Ha! Even when it wasnt her last performance, people went berserk in the audience. Not that it's a bad thing, but I personally don't pay to hear others clapping and drowning out the performer before the song is done.

[@divalicious4888]

That only happens when you don't move the audience to pieces like she did and does.

I got to work with her a little this weekend, and not only is she amazing on stage, she is seriously the nicest, sweetest person I have ever met.

[@denisewalsh6586]

That us nice to hear ..sometimes when people that are public figures are really sweet you dont know if it's just an act to enhance their public image but numerous people have said she is genuinely a very nice person

[@dezlahache932]

I stumbled upon this video and I'm so glad I did. What a beautiful performance, you had me sucked right in from the moment you started singing!! The audience's reaction is well deserved

[@starpotatoes5487]

[@danielafuentesramirez1145]

I'm crying!!! love your performance Christy, just WOW! Been a fan of this masterpiece since it's release!

Her face at the end, second to last note, she knows she just MURDERED IT and is like “that’s right m****fuckers sit down for supper cuz I’m serving“

The new 2021 Anastasia is so sweet and talanted too, but Christy is a true legend playing Anya. An incomparable actress, indeed.

[@flufftv811]

Heart, don't fail me now Courage, don't desert me Don't turn back now that we're here People always say Life is full of choices No one ever mentions fear Or how the world can seem so vast On a journey to the past Somewhere down this road I know someone's waiting Years of dreams just can't be wrong Arms will open wide I'll be safe and wanted Finally home where I belong Well, starting now I'm learning fast On this journey to the past Home, love, family There was once a time I must have had them too Home, love, family I will never be complete Until I find you One step at a time One hope then another Who knows where this road may go Back to who I was On to find my future Things my heart still needs to know Yes, let this be a sign Let this road be mine Let it lead me to my past And bring me home At last

[@liliallen6439]

If only people would wait until the end note finishes to start screaming! It's an insult to her incredible effort to hold that final note.

[@denisewalsh6586]

Agree..can we just stay in control like audiences going to the opera and other musicals and let the performance stay intact so as to give integrity to the entire final performance

It’s very similar to the movie in plot and has a lot of songs from it, but is also adds more of a story of Russian revolution
