Single tickets for the pre-Broadway engagement of Frozen, the new musical based on Disney’s Academy Award-winning musical film, will go on sale May 1 at 10 AM MT at denvercenter.org.
As previously reported, the two-act musical will play the Denver Center for the Performing Arts' Buell Theatre August 17–October 1. Tickets start at $25 with a limit of eight tickets per account.
Tony winner Michael Grandage (Red) directs the production, which will feature choreography by Tony winner Christopher Gattelli (Newsies, South Pacific, The King and I).
Frozen will open on Broadway in spring 2018 at the St. James Theatre, joining Disney Theatrical’s other Broadway mainstays The Lion King and Aladdin. Casting and Broadway dates will be announced at a later date; Caissie Levy and Patti Murin were recently announced to take on the roles of Elsa and Anna, respectively, in a developmental lab.
The new musical features music and lyrics by the creators of the film's score, Kristen Anderson-Lopez (In Transit, Up Here) and EGOT winner Robert Lopez (Avenue Q, The Book of Mormon, Up Here), and a book by Jennifer Lee (Wreck-It Ralph), the film’s screenwriter and director (with Chris Buck). Frozen won 2014 Oscars for Best Song (“Let It Go”) and Best Animated Feature.
