The Arts Center of Coastal Carolina’s holiday production of Frozen is a dazzling triumph of theatrical magic, emotional depth, and musical brilliance. Experiencing this celebration of courage, connection, and ultimately love, live and in-person is truly enchanting.
The Arts Center has transformed its stage into the icy wonderland of Arendelle for its production of Frozen, onstage November 26 to December 28, 2025. Based on the Academy Award-winning Disney film, this musical adaptation brings beloved characters like Elsa, Anna, Kristoff, Sven, and Olaf to life with breathtaking visuals, soaring music, and heartfelt performances.
Director Larry Rabun, known for his visionary approach to family-friendly theater, shared his passion for the production: “Frozen is more than a fairy tale—it’s a celebration of courage, connection, and the power of love. We’ve worked tirelessly to ensure every moment on stage resonates with audiences, both young and young-at-heart.” His direction emphasizes the emotional journey of the characters, especially the evolving relationship between sisters Elsa and Anna.
The production features all the iconic songs from the film, including “Let It Go,” “Do You Want to Build a Snowman,” and “Love Is an Open Door,” alongside new music written exclusively for the stage by Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez. The score is both familiar and fresh, offering audiences a deeper dive into the characters’ inner lives.
Visually, the show is a spectacle. The Arts Center’s creative team has crafted a set that seamlessly shifts from the warmth of the royal palace to Elsa’s glittering ice castle. The use of lighting, projection, and costume design creates a truly immersive experience. Young theatergoers will be enchanted by Olaf’s whimsical charm and Sven’s playful antics, while adults will appreciate the themes of self-discovery and resilience.
The cast, composed of seasoned professionals and rising local talent, is sure to deliver standout performances. Elsa’s emotional arc—from fear to empowerment—is portrayed with nuance and strength, while Anna’s optimism and bravery shine through every scene. Kristoff and Olaf provide comic relief and heart, grounding the fantastical elements in genuine humanity.
This production underscores the Arts Center’s commitment to producing high-caliber theater for Lowcountry residents and visiting guests to our region. With Frozen, they’ve not only met expectations—they’ve exceeded them. Families, tourists, and longtime patrons alike will find something to love in this magical winter offering. “You don’t have to be a little one to fall in love with this show,” stated Jeffrey Reeves our CEO president.
Unlike anything you can experience by watching this on a screen, experiencing the true magic of Frozen come to vibrant life onstage is truly unforgettable.
