Pre-Broadway "Frozen" Receiving Rave Reviews

OK, so now we have another must-see Disney on Broadway show.

The out-of-town preview of Disney's stage production of "Frozen" in Denver is getting quite a positive reception, judging from this Variety review of the musical.

The din during the intermission of a recent performance of the Broadway-bound musical “Frozen” might have broken decibel records at Denver Center’s Buell Theater. No doubt the house’s hum was amped by the higher-pitched voices of the booster-seat crowd, but if Disney Theatrical Productions’ aim was to age up the demographic of the animated blockbuster’s stage adaptation, they’ve succeeded. In its live rendition of “Let It Go,” the signature tune from the 2014 Oscar winner, the musical wows adults as much as kids with a brilliant spectacle — as poignant as it is jaw-dropping — that should ensure the production a hearty run in New York, where the show begins Broadway previews in February.

Maybe I'll have to start thinking about flying to NY sometime next year.

Zz.
