“The Snow Queen at Park Square Theatre: following the delightful new trend of musicals in which cast and band are one, eight actor/musician/singer/dancers told Hans Christian Anderson’s charming winter tale with joyful innovation. It was a truly magical and spellbinding evening of storytelling.”

Director Doug Scholz-Carlson gives enchanting life to Michael Peter Smith’s musical adaptation, with a fine cast featuring voices as pure as falling snow. Most of the lines are sung, and the simple melodies fit the tale’s guileless nature.

“If there is virtuosity in this “Snow Queen,” it comes from the sum of all these things. … Scholz-Carlson and his cast construct a spirit that invades us with Andersen’s fantasy.”
