Frozen: The Hit Broadway Musical

Wonderful performances from all the cast, great staging and effects, they did really well at translating the movie to the stage.

I loved all the songs, the new songs fit in really well and were great fun to watch. I was very impressed with the performances of the young actors who played young Elsa and Anna. It was also good to have a mixture of close up and wide shots from different angles, which you wouldn't get if you saw it in the theatre.

As someone who loved the original movie, I thought they captured the essence really well while adding extra characterisation and moments which are fun to watch and build the story and the world.

All in all I thoroughly enjoyed it and thought they did a brilliant job.

I'm not an expert in musicals, but "Frozen: the Hit Broadway Musical" truly impressed me from start to finish. Everything about it felt polished and thoughtfully executed, from the stunning costumes to the detailed set designs that beautifully bring Arendelle to life on stage.

The cast delivered exceptional performances-both vocally and in their acting-capturing the essence of the beloved characters while adding a fresh theatrical spark. The songs we all know from the movie were performed with power and emotion, but I was pleasantly surprised by how good the new original songs are too. They blend in seamlessly and help deepen the story in meaningful ways.

The pacing of the show is spot-on, keeping things engaging without ever feeling rushed. I also appreciated the light touch of added comedy, which gave the performance extra charm without undermining the emotional moments.

A wonderfully enjoyable musical that's visually stunning, musically strong, and emotionally satisfying-even for someone who doesn't usually watch musicals.

We absolutely love Disney's original animated film-my daughter and I (her name is Anna too, and she was also born in 2013, just like the first Frozen movie :D ). I had high expectations for this theatrical/musical performance, but it did not disappoint. A few observations:

The visuals are stunning. The sets, the costumes, the effects-everything. Absolutely breathtaking. In this area, it far exceeded my expectations.

The cast is top-notch. Everyone, from the leads to the supporting roles. And not just vocally, but in terms of acting as well. Both Anna and Elsa were perfect choices, they portrayed their characters beautifully (and the young Anna and Elsa were adorable and very talented too). A big shoutout to the actor who brought Olaf to life-brilliant job. :)

The songs we already knew from the film were, in my opinion, beautifully arranged and performed. I can't yet fully appreciate the new songs after hearing them only once-each one was good, but for now I couldn't hum any of them yet. A few more viewings might change that. :)

There were a few changes in the storyline (not major, nothing that altered the main plot), mainly to make things work better on stage, and honestly, every change worked really well.

All in all, it's clear that a large and incredibly professional team worked on this production, and I think it's a truly worthy interpretation of the original story.

I had already bought tickets to the live performance, but since those are for October, I just couldn't resist watching the version available on Disney+ in the meantime-and after seeing it, I'm not less excited, but even more looking forward to October!

Although I have long be a fan of the stage, I have been leery of live action and stage versions of animated films ever since my wife insisted I take our children to the stage version of Lion King, battled 2-hours of traffic each way to get there, and the kids' reaction was they liked the cartoon better. However, I seem to be one of the select few who had not seen the animated version of Frozen before I saw this stage adaptation, so I had no preconceptions or expectations and did not have to spend my time deciding which was "better." I found this stage play perfectly enjoyable. I have been a fan of Samantha Barks for years and she, as usual, was exceptional both in her singing and acting. Laura Dawkes was a revelation; she has a great voice and is a born comedian. Craig Galavan operating the puppet snowman also provided comic relief. In fact, after watching the animated film, I actually preferred the stage play version in many ways. I am not a great fan of CGI animated people, and the humor struck me as funny when presented by live actors rather than "cute," as is generally the case with CGI animated figures. As with most musicals, there were only a few "hits", but the other songs were more than adequate to move the action forward.

Keep in mind while watching that an inherent problem with filmed stage shows is that the actors are projecting to an audience, not a camera, so they might look like they are overacting somewhat in the closeups.

They at Disney should realise that we need more prerecorded stage shows on Disney+ and less of what they are giving us with uninspired Disney live action movies. This is a beautiful show and it captures the essence of the animated movie perfectly. Since the animated movie is already a musical this looks like the logical way to try telling this story. All the beloved characters of the movie are here. The songs are really not doing it for me. I haven't found the perfect dynamic song to recognise this musical by because it already exists in the animated movie. "Frozen" is made by pure musical theatre wonder and magic and that's why I enjoyed every minute of this. I just wish its soundtrack was as memorable as it is in the original.
