The 60-minute adaptation of the Broadway musical and Disney film follows royal sisters Anna and Elsa. When Elsa accidentally casts the kingdom of Arendelle into eternal winter, Anna sets out to save her sister and the kingdom. The production features characters including Kristoff, Sven and the snowman Olaf, along with songs such as “Do You Want to Build a Snowman?,” “For the First Time in Forever” and “Let It Go.”
