Frozen stars: ‘It’s great that this is the city Disney trusts to give them a valid and educated response.’

In advance of the Denver debut of the upcoming new Broadway musical Frozen on Aug. 17, we present you with this series of interviews with members of the cast and creative team. First up: Caissie Levy (Elsa) and Patti Murin (Anna).  

Says Levy: “I think you are going to mostly see the show that will arrive on Broadway, but you get to see it first here in Denver, which is cool – and you will know all those insider tweaks that happened. I think that’s why we are excited to be here, because this is such a savvy theatregoing city.”

Says Murin: “Any changes that are made between Denver and New York are going to be because of how the Denver audience reacts. And so it’s great that this is the city Disney trusts to give them a valid and educated response.”
