Worth Watching and comparing to the film

I find the 2013 Frozen movie to be fine. Not my favorite. I enjoy much of the music. The story, though acceptable, leaves something to desire for me. This stage adaption stretches the runtime with many new songs. There is a reprise of Let it Go at the end which is an improvement. Most of the other extra songs were a mix bag. I didn't think they were as catchy and a few just seemed to drag the story momentum and not fit with the established style of the original music. But I liked the emotional weight which was added due to a few of them as well. I also appreciated that their "Fixer Upper" version is easier to understand . I also liked the heavier character stake attention and drama from the song right before Anna is struck in the heart with the magic. The inclusion of a song at the ball between Anna and Elsa seemed nice as well, even if the song they wrong wasn't memorable. The others mostly felt ok or bad. I especially didn't like the scene of christoph and Anna getting gear as much as in the movie. They also made Hans seem more nice and selfless than necessary in my opinion while he was in charge of Arendal with a song that seemed more harmful than helpful.They end up cutting some of the dramatic visuals from the movie due to challenges of showing things like a snow monster or a wolf sled chase or the characters falling off a cliff on a theater stage.The original Let it Go becomes the first act conclusion. Which isn't what I would have done if I was in charge of the project. This sort of forces them to stretch out the first act and introduces Olaf prior to "Let it Go" where Elsa creates him in the movie accidentally. It felt weird to not see a magical snowman being created. It's not how I would have proposed the story. I also felt like there was little urgency in the first act because they had to push back Let it Go and add stuff to make the first act long enough.I'd have ended the first act with the scene where Elsa is hit with the ice in her heart. I feel like you want to end the first act with an emotional cliffhanger rather than just a popular song which is really not at the heart of the overall story, but one of the main characters. I do appreciate that Elsa is more transparent with Anna about her magic and the fact that they shielded Anna from the truth. So overall, it's interesting and fine like the movie. Better in a few ways. Worse in a few ways. Worth comparing. Hopefully someday they can remake the movie in live action and get the best of both.

Disney's Magical Broadway Show Based on Animated film is amazing! Still missing detail, though.

I respect that they included the details from the original movie, where Anna was hit in the face by Elsa, and Elsa revealing her powers to everyone, and also the short song "Reindeers are Better Than People". But I don't get a few things: they added new songs. Like, how weird is that?The new song at the start "A Little Bit of You" or was it A Little Bit of Me?, was when Anna and Elsa chose to stay up late instead of sleeping, leading to a tragic accident. I don't get the hype about it.I felt like the sequel to Frozen was my favourite, but when I decided to watch the original on television, I honestly couldn't agree on whether Frozen is better than Frozen 2, or Frozen 2 is better than Frozen. It was a real face-off!So I think that's enough for today.7/10.

Great interpretation of the movie!

Loved it! I'll undoubtedly be adding some of the new songs to my musicals playlist.With beautiful costumes, complex moving sets and a captivating ensemble, I was quickly won over. The puppeteering of Sven and Olaf is an awesome way to bring them to life, and the use of lighting for the magic looks super cool.I didn't mind the little differences in the plot either, like I honestly really liked the Hidden Folk. The way they expanded on some of the characters was quite good, as well.If you enjoy musical theatre adaptations of stories like this, you're bound to like it. Just don't expect a 1:1 remake, and you won't be disappointed.
