Synopsis
At Stephen Schwartz Elementary School, student Adele Dazeem and her drama club teacher Kristen Chenobell are trapped in a classroom in the middle of a Boston blizzard when they set out on a magical adventure to the land of Scandinorfindelle where two witch princess siblings, Glindanna and Elsaba, along with Prince IKEA, attend a special school to control their freezing powers.
Critical reception
Time Out, "Like an ice capade infused with psychedelic drugs, this musical parody of Wicked and Frozen goes wild to hit every mark a fan could desire."[4]
Offoffonline said in its review, "With Forbidden Broadway gone, Off-Broadway could use another outlet for hurling good-natured abuse at deserving pop-culture musical institutions. Wicked Frozen, alas, isn't quite it.[5][6]
