As the UK leaves its third national lockdown, many theatres are preparing to reopen their doors this May once restrictions have been lifted, with some shows waiting as far as late July before welcoming patrons back into their theatres. Returning favourites include Hamilton, Disney’s The Lion King, and Disney’s Mary Poppins and with old favourites come new productions, including Frozen the Musical.
SUGGESTED: London’s ‘The Lion King’ Sets Reopening Date
Based upon the 2013 animated film of the same name, Frozen the Musical was originally scheduled to open at London’s Theatre Royal, Drury Lane in 2020. The European debut was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic and will now begin previews on August 27th, 2021, before its official opening on September 8th.
For those of you excited to finally experience the new musical, you’ll be pleased to know that tickets are now on sale! Ahead of ticket bookings, Disney has released several official character portraits of the cast in costume.
