Last night marked a return to Arendelle. I was pretty emotional the first time I saw Frozen and I remained emotional last night-the show is genuinely beautiful, with some great character and writing moments. @courtneymonsma was born to be a Disney Princess-she moves between awkwardness and grace in an instant, gives great face, and maintains beautiful vocals and endearing charm throughout. @jemmarix_oz vocal control and accuracy never wavered for a moment, and she makes you feel the poignancy of Elsa’s conflict. Thomas McGuane is perfectly cast. Ensemble harmonies are 👌👌👌 making the coronation number a musical highlight. The tongue-in-cheek humour holds up to a second viewing. Young Anna and young Elsa are even better than they were a few months ago. The show provides the entire company many a moment to shine, and they do, from Oaken (Blake Appelqvist) to Pabbie (Jakob Ambrose, who my friends nicknamed “abs”-sorry to objectify!) to Bulda (Jayme-Lee Hanekom) who is scene-stealingly charismatic. Watching the kids run out to play in the falling snow was a bonus delight. There are elements of staging that sort of story that are hard, and they’re not always pulled off, and other parts are spectacular stage craft. Regardless, it’s a fun night out, and I’d see it again (again). Was a pleasure to get to see it fellow musical theatre tragics @ellaarendelle and @thehonourablec and Pete-can informally start a petition that Frozen’s puppetry team talk to @one_orange_sock ? #frozenmusical #musicaltheatre https://www.instagram.com/p/CNj6YCJFrv06oTtWOcLHvz-E1cjXdM8MrXo1740/?igshid=o2lilxg24kg2
