About Frozen The Musical

Disney's Frozen premiered on Broadway in March 2018 at the St. James Theatre following a tryout in Denver. The stage adaptation expands on the 2013 film's story of Princess Anna, who sets out to find her estranged sister Queen Elsa after Elsa's magical ice powers accidentally plunge the kingdom into eternal winter. Along the way, Anna is joined by mountain man Kristoff, his loyal reindeer Sven, and the lovable snowman Olaf.

The musical adds significant depth to both sisters' characters, explores the theme of sisterly love, and features stunning special effects that bring Elsa's ice magic to life on stage. The Broadway production was nominated for three Tony Awards and became an international phenomenon with productions worldwide.
