Following in the footsteps of Disney on Broadway’s blockbusters The Lion King, Aladdin, Beauty and the Beast, and Mary Poppins, Frozen on Broadway is a not-to-be-missed spectacle packed with colorful characters, memorable music, stunning sets, and important lessons about love, belonging, daring to be different, and finding the courage to look inside oneself.
Your kid’s first trip to Broadway is pretty much a rite of passage, so deciding on that inaugural show can feel a bit daunting. Well, unless of course you’ve got an Elsa superfan on your hands like I do (or Anna, or Olaf…), in which case making the decision to snag tickets to Frozen on Broadway might not be so tough.
