About the Production
Frosty the Snow Man tells a whimsical story of friendship, laughter, and the fleeting magic of winter. This merry wintertime romp follows Frosty as he bounces, twirls, and melts his way into the hearts of children and adults alike—warming even the iciest of hearts. “This show is another feather in Adventure Theatre MTC’s magical hat of holiday favorites,” said Artistic Director Kurt Boehm. “We’re surrounded by family—both onstage and off—and that’s what the holidays are all about. We’re thrilled to welcome longtime friend Danny Tippett back to Adventure, along with a talented cast and creative team who continue to bring our stage to life with imagination and heart.”
