Fort Worth audiences are getting a dose of Arendelle magic this month as Casa Mañana stages Disney's Frozen: The Broadway Musical, with tickets starting at $39. Leandra Ellis-Gaston takes on the role of Elsa, while Sydney Dotson plays her sister Anna in the stage adaptation of the beloved story about sisterhood, acceptance, and the meaning of true love.
According to casamanana.org, the production is scheduled to begin with a preview performance on Friday, November 6. The theatre's announcement listed the run as November 7 through November 15, though a March report from the Fort Worth Report had earlier said the musical would run November 10 through 15. As reported by FTWtoday, Frozen is showing live onstage at Casa Mañana through Sunday, November 15.
What to Expect From the Production
Casa Mañana's Frozen runs 2 hours and 30 minutes, including a 15-minute intermission, per the theatre's event listing. The production is billed as suitable for all audiences, though it does contain flashing lights, sudden loud noises, theatrical smoke, and haze — details families may want to weigh before heading to the theatre.
The show is also part of the theatre's new Mini-Plan subscription packages for the current season, as noted by BroadwayWorld in its coverage of the production's trailer. Fort Worth photographer Chip Tompkins captured images from the Frozen production, giving local audiences a preview of the icy spectacle before curtain.
Accessibility and Ticket Details
Families looking to catch a sensory-friendly or accessible performance have an option built into the run. ASL interpretation will be available for the Sunday, November 15 performance, and patrons who want to arrange seating for that show are asked to email the box office directly ahead of time.
With tickets starting at $39, Casa Mañana's take on the Tony-nominated musical offers Fort Worth families and Frozen fans a chance to see Elsa and Anna's story unfold live, backed by Disney's full stage production values, before the run wraps up on Sunday, November 15.
