Frozen
(Snow Queen)

Summary of the musical Frozen :

In the kingdom of Arendelle, Princess Elsa has the power to create ice cream, and her younger sister Anna loves to play with her. When Elsa accidentally hits Anna on the head with her powers and almost kills her, their parents take them to the trolls who save Anna's life and make her forget about her sister's powers. Elsa returns to the castle and remains recluse in her room, for fear of hurting Anna again. When their parents die at sea three years later, Elsa is to be crowned. This forces him to open the doors of the castle and show himself in public. Anna meets Prince Hans at the party and immediately falls in love and decides to marry him. But Elsa does not approve of this union, loses control of her powers and freezes Arendelle. Elsa flees into the mountains, and Anna teams up with peasant Kristoff, his reindeer Sven, and snowman Olaf to search for Elsa. They find her in her frozen castle and she accidentally hits Anna in the heart; now only true love can save his sister from death.
