On June 1, Shiki Theatre Company held a press conference in Osaka to announce that Disney's FROZEN will begin a long-run engagement at Osaka Shiki Theatre on June 20, 2027. Based on Disney's 2013 animated feature film, “FROZEN” was adapted into a stage musical that premiered on Broadway in 2018. Since then, the production has expanded internationally, with performances staged in cities including London, Sydney, and Hamburg. In Japan, Shiki Theatre Company premiered the musical in Tokyo in June 2021 (See : Review: Disney's FROZEN in Tokyo). The production continues to run at JR East Shiki Theatre [HARU] and, as of May 31, 2026, has reached 1,561 performances and welcomed more than 2.1 million audience members. The upcoming Osaka production will mark the second Japanese city to host the musical following Tokyo. It will also be the first Disney musical long-run engagement at Osaka Shiki Theatre in five years, following “The Little Mermaid,” which played there from 2018 to 2021.
