‘Frozen’

Heralded by The New Yorker as “thrilling” and “genuinely moving,” “Frozen” has joined Disney Theatrical Productions’ megahit “The Lion King” on tour across North America, and the critics agree, “It’s simply magical!” (LA Daily News).

“Disney’s struck gold! Sumptuous sets, gorgeous costumes, and plenty of special effects to wow the audience!” raves the New York Post. “With the magic, the dancing, and all those iconic tunes, Frozen was born to be a stage musical!” writes the Evening Standard. The Los Angeles Times declares “the North American tour is irresistible in its creativity and verve” and The Hollywood Reporter proclaims that Frozen is “thawing hearts from coast to coast!”

By the end of 2021 there will be five productions of “Frozen” around the world, including Australia, Japan, London and Hamburg. The Tony-nominated Best Musical completed its Broadway run in March 2020 after breaking four house records at The St. James Theatre.

A mysterious secret. A family torn apart. As one sister struggles with being an outsider and harnessing her powers within, the other sets out on a thrilling adventure to bring her family together once again. Both are searching for love, but they’ll learn that to find it they’ll have to look inside themselves first.

A press release stated, “ ‘Frozen’ is melting hearts across the country in an all-new production created for the stage by an award-winning team. It features the songs you know and love from the original Oscar-winning film, plus an expanded score with a dozen new numbers by the film’s songwriters, Oscar-winner Kristen Anderson-Lopez and EGOT-winner Robert Lopez.”

Joining them on a creative team that has won a cumulative 16 Tony Awards are Oscar-winner Jennifer Lee (book), Tony and Olivier Award-winner Michael Grandage (director), and Tony-winner Rob Ashford (choreographer).

The design team for “Frozen” includes scenic and costume design by two-time Tony and Olivier Award-winner Christopher Oram, lighting design by six-time Tony Award-winner Natasha Katz, sound design by seven-time Tony nominee Peter Hylenski, video design by Tony-winner Finn Ross, puppet design by Michael Curry, hair design by David Brian Brown, makeup design by Anne Ford-Coates, and special effects design by Jeremy Chernick.

Two-time Tony Award-winner Stephen Oremus is music supervisor and creates vocal, incidental and dance arrangements. He is joined on the music team by Tony nominee Dave Metzger (orchestrations), Chris Montan (executive music producer), David Chase (additional dance arrangements), and Faith Seetoo (music director).

Anne Quart serves as co-producer.
