Following the success of Frozen on the big screen, a Broadway musical adaptation began development back in 2014, a mere year after the release of the original movie. With Jennifer Lee (script writer and co-director of the movie) returning to write the book and Kristen and Robert Lopez returning to pen 13 brand new songs, the show premiered in Denver for a 2017 preview run, and officially opened on Broadway on March 22, 2018. Due to the COVID-19 Pandemic, Disney suspended its performances because of Broadway's shutdown from COVID-19 and would not resume performances after the shutdown was lifted, effectively closing the musical on March 11, 2020. However, the national tour was planned to continue when touring shows became feasible again, and eventually restarted in September of 2021.The original Denver and Broadway cast features Caissie Levy as Elsa, Patti Murin as Anna, Jelani Alladin as Kristoff, Greg Hildreth as Olaf, and John Riddle as Hans.While it has a few modifications to better fit the stage, the musical closely follows the film in terms of story, but the new stage-exclusive songs help give us a better understanding of the inner struggles that our main characters go through, shedding some new light on a familiar story that audiences haven't seen before.Not to be confused with the shorter Frozen—Live at the Hyperion stage musical at Disney California Adventure.Note: Spoilers for the original movie are unmarked. | |

Villain Song | |
| Frozen (2018) (Theatre) / int_1ccad9a3 | comment |
Villain Song: Prince Hans gets two solos in the show, "Hans of the Southern Isles" and a reprise, although they aren't particularly villainous. During the Denver production, however, Hans had a Dark Reprise that he sings when he betrays Anna, gloating about his plot, which acted as his true Villain Song. Lyrics available here. He still gets a smaller Dark Reprise at that moment: | |

Mythology Gag: During the Denver tryout, Grand Pabbie wears a ceremonial headdress that resembles the face of his animated counterpart. A troll's face can also be found on the set as a doorknob. Sir Jorgen Bjorgen, Elsa's stuffed puffin toy from Olaf's Frozen Adventure, does make it into the musical as a prop in Anna's bedroom. The reprise of "For the First Time in Forever", and its replacement in the touring production, "I Can't Lose You", begin with Elsa singing the bridge from the Demi Lovato version of "Let It Go": "Standing, frozen, in this life I've chosen...." | |

Adapted Out | |
| Frozen (2018) (Theatre) / int_33d5b7f2 | comment |
Adapted Out: Marshmallow, the wolves, and Hans's horse Sitron do not appear in the stage musical. In the case of Marshmallow, Elsa kicks Anna out of her ice palace by herself, rather than using Marshmallow to do it. For Sitron, rather than a rowboat, Anna and Hans fall into Kristoff's ice cart. The sequence with the wolves is replaced with a duet between Anna and Kristoff. Because of the plot restructuring, Kristoff's introduction as a child gets eliminated (the Hidden Folk merely mention that they sometimes take in stray children). "Frozen Heart" is replaced with "Vuelie / Let the Sun Shine On", although the melodies of "Frozen Heart" are still featured in other songs, most notably in "Colder by the Minute". They also appeared in the reprise of "For the First Time in Forever" that appeared in the original Broadway run. | |

Adaptational Heroism | |
| Frozen (2018) (Theatre) / int_3f45f1e6 | comment |
Adaptational Heroism: Downplayed with the Duke of Weselton. Though he's still a villainous weasel with a sexist attitude, the Duke here is at least willing to brave the treacherous mountains along with Hans to find Elsa rather than remain behind and let his henchmen do the dirty work like he does in the film. Though he isn't punished, it's at least implied he gets better once he sees Elsa really meant no harm. | |

Early-Installment Weirdness | |
| Frozen (2018) (Theatre) / int_4f4372e9 | comment |
Early-Installment Weirdness: Some songs included in the Denver tryout were cut before the transfer to Broadway. A second, openly villainous reprise of "Hans of the Southern Isles" was cut to only the last verse before opening on Broadway, as was Olaf's new song "When Everything Falls Apart". The finale song was also a reprise of "Love Is An Open Door", which, since "Love is an Open Door" was the closest thing to a Villain Song, was something Kristen Anderson-Lopez didn't like. At her insistence, the finale song was changed to a reprise of "Let It Go". In the Denver tryout, Grand Pabbie played a much larger role as the narrator of the story. This concept was removed from the Broadway version, and he only shows up during the prologue, the Hidden Folk scene, and the finale. | |

BSoD Song | |
| Frozen (2018) (Theatre) / int_512b00e0 | comment |
BSoD Song: Both Elsa and Anna get their own. Elsa has "Monster", where she starts questioning whether or not she's truly a monster after damning her entire kingdom to an endless winter. It gets to the point where she considers suicide as a means of breaking the curse, but in the end, she chooses to stand her ground and save Arendelle from her own destruction. Anna has the heartbreaking "True Love", which she sings after Hans betrays her. Realizing how disillusioned she was during her pursuit for love, she grieves about how she's going to die never knowing what true love is, in the very same room where she was shut out by her sister so many years ago. | |

Adaptational Attractiveness | |
| Frozen (2018) (Theatre) / int_557838d1 | comment |
Adaptational Attractiveness: Through Adaptational Species Change. Grand Pabbie, Bulda, and the trolls are now taller, human-like creatures called the Hidden Folk, a far cry from the short, bulky, big eared characters that they are in the film. Pabbie himself is now a muscular, long-haired man with a thick beard. The Duke of Weselton, while still older than the main characters, is younger than his animated counterpart. | |

Triumphant Reprise: The first time Hans sings "Hans of the Southern Isles", it highlights his endearing dorkiness. In the reprise, he becomes a heroic figure as he recruits men to attack Elsa's castle. The Finale is a triumphant reprise of "Let It Go", starting as a duet by Elsa and Anna as Elsa thaws Arendelle, and concluding with the entire company joining in. | |

Pragmatic Adaptation | |
| Frozen (2018) (Theatre) / int_603f1a80 | comment |
Pragmatic Adaptation: Quite a few elements of the film have been reimagined to better suit the stage musical. In "For the First Time In Forever", the lines "Who knew we had eight thousand salad plates? ... Finally they're opening up the gates" are replaced with "And there's two nice ladies helping me get dressed ... Coronation Day is just the best!" While Olaf retains his animated appearance (ignore the puppeteer standing behind him 24/7), Sven has been redesigned to be a more realistic-looking reindeer◊. Rather than a precariously balanced rowboat and Sitron the horse, Anna's run-in with Hans involves them falling into Kristoff's ice cart. The wolf chase has been cut out entirely, and replaced with a new duet for Anna and Kristoff. The part where she keeps him from falling off the sled is changed to them keeping each other from falling off a bridge. Possibly due to being the most iconic song of the entire film, "Let It Go" is saved for the finale of Act I rather than happening immediately after Elsa flees the kingdom. As a result, much of Act I is centered around Anna and Kristoff searching for clues of Elsa's whereabouts, building up the suspense of her final destination and decision. "Let It Go"'s melody is lowered a half-step in key, so it's sung with the same key as Demi Lovato's pop cover from the end credits of the movie, for the sake of making it easier for actresses to hit the notes. Elsa doesn't create Marshmallow in the show. Instead, she forces Anna, Kristoff, and Olaf out of the castle herself. The trolls are now human (or at least humanoid) characters. Additionally, they come to the royal family rather than the royal family coming to them. Consequently, Kristoff's Minor Kidroduction is cut due to being an unnecessary detail that would interrupt the flow of the story. | |

Instant Costume Change: Probably one of the most impressive ones in any Disney musical. A flash of light and a puff of smoke are all it takes for Elsa's coronation outfit to instantly transform into the iconic ice dress, and it never fails to get a big applause. | |

No Ontological Inertia | |
| Frozen (2018) (Theatre) / int_704d7e91 | comment |
No Ontological Inertia: Discussed, and a source of dramatic tension. Neither Elsa nor Hans are certain whether killing Elsa will cancel the effects of her magic, or make it last forever.note Frozen II establishes that the former is true. | |

Honest John's Dealership | |
| Frozen (2018) (Theatre) / int_70bdac19 | comment |
Honest John's Dealership: Oaken promises Kristoff that his usual overpriced products are free of charge... if they all die from the eternal winter. If not, then Kristoff owes 10,000 kroner to Oaken. | |

Adaptational Early Appearance | |
| Frozen (2018) (Theatre) / int_723606c4 | comment |
Adaptational Early Appearance: Anna meets Kristoff and Olaf before she gets to Wandering Oaken's Trading Post & Sauna. This is a deviation from the movie, where Anna meets Kristoff at Oaken's, they fight off wolves, then encounter Olaf en route from Oaken's to Elsa's ice palace. | |

Their parents, Agnarr and Iduna, are usually played by a black and Asian actor as well. Ciara Renée, who's of African, Hispanic, and Native American descent, plays Elsa following Caissie Levy's departure. | |
