I find it slightly ridiculous that they're starting to build hype for a show that's not opening until late 2020 when some West End theatres haven't even announced their programming for the rest of this year yet. Why's it ridiculous? They've got shed loads of tickets to sell! I just find it odd to be seeing a trailer for a show that’s 18 months from opening, it feels so far away. |

My only hope based on this new trailer is that they are slightly hinting Cassie will be Elsa. I know that's reading too much into it, but a boy can dream. 😂

Just get Jacqueline Hughes in the ice dress and all will be fine!
Too early to start casting discussions? 😉

They need time for Jane McDonald to finish the next series of 'Cruising with Jane McDonald' before she's available for rehearsals obviously.

Whatever you do, don't try booking the first couple of weeks of performances until there's a cast-iron guarantee that the theatre will definitely be operational.

I know that's reading too much into it, but a boy can dream. 😂 The BBC article linked above says, "Actors currently starring in the Broadway production will stay in New York, while a new British cast will appear in the West End." |

Yeah the press release states a UK cast.
I don't find it odd at all, it builds hype plus the Frozen 2 hype is just going to continue to grow over coming months so it makes sense. If you look at the recent mega hits like Hamilton and Harry Potter, both announced way in advance too

I enjoyed the film but getting tired of the Disney remakes of their product. Other than the Lion King, they are so literal and more suited to a Disney Theme Park than the West End. Giving this a very wide berth.

So glad the Lord of the Rings dry ice machine will get a good airing again. (The smoke never bothered me anyway.)

Clever, opening a show with the title "Frozen" in the late autumn: Customer: "Why is it so cold in here" Manager: (knowing it is because they haven't finished the plumbing) "The clue is in the title, madam. This is immersive theatre, you know." So he's a bit of a fixer-upper, so he's got a few flaws Like his peculiar brain-dear, his thing with the reindeer That's a little outside of nature's laws! |

Exciting. I think there are loads of great options for the leads in this.

I must admit that i do like the Frozen logo. I love anything that has things hidden in it that you dont see at first glance. Very clever.

Like my dance mad wife not seeing the dancers in the ‘Cats’ logo until she was about 27 and sat on a bus (erghhh) outside the theatre and did the discovery ‘ahhhhhh!’. Bless. |

I didn't even realise this wasn't confirmed up till now😂. Can't wait to see this, love the film, avoided watching it until a few months ago but then my friend wanted to watch it so I gave in and actually really enjoyed it!

Two faces looking at each other, like the old "is this a vase or two people" optical illusion, and a silhouetted woman with her arm raised, who I presume is Elsa. They're hidden in the giant snowflake. (Lemme know if there's other stuff I'm missing!)

Lol. I was looking at the wrong logo, but even then, I don’t know if I would have spotted it.
