Caissie Levy and Patti Murin are looking so fierce as Elsa and Anna in these new portraits of them in costume as their Frozen characters!
The ladies are starring in the new musical on Broadway and their co-stars Jelani Alladin (Kristoff), Greg Hildreth (Olaf) and John Riddle (Hans) are also pictured in the portraits shot by Andrew Eccles.
Frozen, a full-length stage work told in two acts, is the first and only incarnation of the tale that expands upon and deepens its indelible plot and themes through new songs and story material from the film’s creators.
The day is here and Frozen has finally arrived on Broadway!
Performances are beginning today for Disney’s new musical and the first new song from the show, an Elsa song titled “Monster,” has been unveiled. Caissie Levy sings the power ballad at the end of act two and The New York Times has an amazing video of her performance.
“It’s a moment of anxiety where the freedom she found in ‘Let It Go’ is shaken, and she hears in the distance the voices of the men coming for her, and she realizes now is the time she has to decide what her next move is,” songwriter Robert Lopez said about the song.
Kristen Anderson-Lopez added, “It’s full of conflicting emotions. It’s got fear. It’s got rage. It’s got her self-flagellation. It’s someone who has been living a double life of secrets and shame that no one knows about, and this is the moment of reckoning with all the destruction that she left behind her.”
Also in attendance were director Michael Grandage and composers Robert Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez.
Frozen will begin preview performances at the St. James Theatre on February 22 and a new rehearsal video was just shared online. The clip shows the cast at the Sitzprobe, which is when the actors and the musicians in the orchestra join forces for the first time to perform the music.
