Portland Stage Presents THE SNOW QUEEN
THE SNOW QUEEN is running through December 24.
Portland Stage Company will present the timeless tale of love, friendship, and the lengths we go to to care for our loved ones, THE SNOW QUEEN running through December 24.
Directed by Portland Stage's Artistic Director, Anita Stewart, and Associate Director Todd Brian Backus, who is Portland Stage's Literary Manager, the story is the source material for the huge Disney hit, Frozen, and tells the tale of a hero's journey through the seasons to rescue a friend from the influence of the Snow Queen herself.
Returning to Portland Stage is Breezy Leigh* playing the Snow Queen! After her incredible and fierce performance as the titular character in last season's production of CLYDE'S, Ms. Leigh is bringing a new perspective on a classic character. Laura Darrell* returns fresh from Portland Stage's run of THE PLAY THAT GOES WRONG playing Gerda, the play's hero. They are joined by Ian Thomas Campbell who is reprising the role of Kai who falls under the Snow Queen's spell. Roland Ruiz* also returns from the cast of CLYDE'S and whose performance was sensitive and layered. Local actor Shannon Campbell and actor/musician Lauren Jeanne Thomas* round out this strong adult cast. They are joined by youth actors from the Greater Portland area who are the faces of the future of theater.
