Come to Arendelle with Theatre Under The Stars (TUTS) and meet the cast of the magical new production of Disney’s Frozen.
Theatre Under The Stars was one of only a handful of theatres across the country chosen by Disney to create one of the first regional productions of Frozen. The new staging and new designs will feature all the magic of this iconic musical and allow audiences to experience Arendelle in a whole new way.
"TUTS’ production of Frozen will be unlike any you’ve seen before! With all the music and beloved characters you adore, we’re reimagining the world of Arendelle in a fresh, breathtaking way," shared TUTS Artistic Director Dan Knechtges, who’s not only directing but also choreographing this dazzling journey into Frozen magic.
Dive into the enchanted tale of Frozen, where two royal sisters, Anna and Elsa, are separated by a powerful, icy spell. As Arendelle falls under an endless winter, brave Anna, along with the fearless Kristoff, the hilarious Olaf, and loyal Sven, embarks on a daring quest to reunite with Elsa and save their kingdom. Will the warmth of sisterhood break the frozen curse? See the story you love told in a whole new way by a fabulous cast of performers.
Leading the cast are Jenna Lea Rosen as “Elsa,” Cailen Fu as “Anna,” Fergie Philippe as “Kristoff,” Mark Ivy as “Olaf,” Kahlil Cabble as “Sven puppet manipulator,” and Manuel Stark Santos as “Hans.” Also in the cast are Ben Lurye as “Weselton,” and Tyler Ray Lewis and Sarah Sachi as “Pabbie” and “Bulda.”
