You say that you can't get enough of Anna, Elsa & Olaf ?
Or you are wearing out that "Frozen" soundtrack CD
on your car as the kids belt
out the Academy Award-winning song "Let it Go" from the back seat? Well, that Walt Disney Animation Studios
production which has the distinction of being the top grossing animated feature
of all time will soon be skating into an arena in your hometown.
"Frozen," the blockbuster Disney movie about two royal
sisters will soon be sculpted into a live ice skating production by Feld
Entertainment.
Feld, which is the company responsible for taking Disney
animated characters and bringing them to life in spectacular ice extravaganzas,
has announced that "Frozen" will begin touring this Fall with tickets now on
sale. But just like how merchandise tied
to this movie is still scarce at the Disney Store and at the Company's theme
parks, you probably don't want to waste any time when it comes to ordering
tickets for this ice show. The
continuing high demand for Elsa princess dresses & plush Olaf could translate
into a run on tickets for this upcoming "Disney on Ice" show.

This production
promises a fantastical winter wonderland of Arendelle beyond all audiences'
imagination. Anna and Elsa will be
joined by the hilarious snowman Olaf, Kristoff and his loyal reindeer Sven and
the mystical trolls as they and audience members' alike journey to discover
that true love is ultimately the most magical power of all.
Producer Nicole Feld says her company has been waiting for a
film like "Frozen" for more than 30 years.
She adds that " … while it might seem obvious that 'Frozen' is well
suited for the ice," the production will reach audiences emotionally through
innovative show elements and world-class skating.
"Frozen" film directors Chris Buck & Jennifer Lee add
they are excited about the next chapter in the lives of their beloved
characters. In a joint statement, the
directors said "Seeing audiences around the world embrace 'Frozen' has been the
experience of a lifetime. And to now have the chance to consult with the
talented team at Feld Entertainment and watch their creation come to life on
ice, is thrilling."

As with all of the other Disney on Ice productions, "Frozen"
will be hosted by Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse with special Disney princess guest
appearances as well characters from Disney Pixar "Toy Story," "Finding Nemo"
and Walt Disney Pictures "The Lion King."
The Feld creative team is promising an immersive experience
for the audience as the set design will encompass the space from the ice
surface up through the air, drawing everyone into the story and closer to the
characters. Feld says families will feel
that they are trekking up to the North
Mountains with Anna, Kristoff and
Sven and they will experience the storm inside Elsa. Her unique magic will be enhanced by
state-of-the-art special effects while her emotions will be conveyed through
powerful skating.
Disney's "Frozen" On Ice will open in Orlando in September
and run through much of 2015. The
production marks the 34th "Disney On Ice" spectacular
staged by Feld Entertainment.
