SCHUYLER COUNTY–Disney’s Frozen Jr., a musical based on the hit 2013 Disney film and the 2018 broadway adaptation, will be presented by the Lake Country Players June 15-18 at the Watkins Glen high school auditorium. Originally scheduled to be performed in June 2020, the production was unfortunately canceled due to the pandemic. Now after a three year wait, and for the most part with a new cast, the youth of the Lake Country Players organization are eager to show off their talent. The multi-aged cast (7-18 yrs old) includes 42 actors from Schuyler, Chemung, Yates, Steuben and Tompkins County who are being led by co-director/music director Kim Laursen partnering for the fifth year with co-director/choreographer Kelsey Johnson.
Join Anna (Anne Roney), Elsa (Mabel Kaufman), and all of the favorite characters: Olaf (Brielle Berg), Kristoff (Grady Cole), and Sven (Jaxson Smith)  as they embark on an epic, ice-filled journey of self-discovery, camaraderie and the real meaning of true love. The characters of Little Anna (Claire Standish/Emma Munroe) and Little Else (McKenna Brubaker/Morgaine Benner); Middle Anna (Natalie VanSkiver) and Middle Elsa (Briana Holton); along with the evil Hans (Nicholas Brusso), the Duke of Weselton (Jordyn Manzer), Oaken (Della Diliberto), and a wonderful ensemble round out the cast of LCP’s Frozen JR.
This will be the first time that the Lake Country Players will be using digital backgrounds thanks to assistance from Pro-Audio Consulting (Painted Post, NY). This special effect brings the Kingdom of Arendelle to life.
