The story of two sisters separated by secret has never been more chilling that it is now at the St. James Theatre on Broadway. Anna and Elsa's love for one another comes to life as never before. Frozen on Broadway brings to life the beloved 2013 film and features twice as much music as the modern animated classic.
For the musical, Disney has reassembled the film's creative team to go deeper into the heart and humor of Arendelle. Featuring music and lyrics by the Kristen Anderson-Lopez and EGOT-winner Robert Lopez and a book by Jennifer Lee, Frozen on Broadway brings to life all of your favorite characters.
Frozen is directed by Michael Grandage and choreographed by Rob Ashford.
Grandage is a director accustomed to Shakespeare and therefore to people trapped by secrets - even in the midst of glittering sets and impressive snow tricks, the bond between the sisters effectively and literally takes the spotlight. Fans of the movie will be pleased to find Anna and Elsa safe in Levy and Murin's gloved hands, and doubters may just find their hearts thawed.
In addition to Oram's monumental icescapes, Finn Ross' video and projection design gives the impression that the St. James stage, proscenium and beyond is freezing before our very eyes. Kudos, too, to Jeremy Chernick's special effects and Peter Hylenski's sound design, which, when it isn't blasting out Levy's high notes, manages to make us believe that a new ice age is upon us.
