Many of these stops have been rescheduled and were slated to be performed last year in 2020. However, it was all postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

F. Michael Haynie (Broadway’s Wicked and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory) as everyone’s optimistic and WARM HUG loving snowman “Olaf,”
Mason Reeves as ARENDELLE’s “always kept to oneself” ice harvester turned true love interest “Kristoff”,
Collin Baja and Evan Strand alternating as resident reindeer “Sven” (FUN FACT: This role is alternated because of how physical it is on the performer’s body),
and
a Full Ensemble.
New to the cast will include….
the show’s original Broadway cast member Drama Desk nominee Robert Creighton (Broadway’s Chicago and Anything Goes plus Off Broadway’s Cagney) reprising the role of the sleazy royal sidekick of “Hans” himself “The Duke of Weselton”,
Natalia Artigas and Natalie Grace Chan alternating as “Young Elsa”
and
Olivia Jones and Victoria Hope Chan as “Young Anna”.
FUN FACT: Natalie Grace Chan and Victoria Hope Chan will BOTH make FROZEN history as the first real life sister to star opposite each other as the young version of the show’s heroines.
Welcome Back FROZEN National Tour!!!
