New York City
Kurtz made her Broadway debut in the New York production.
McKenzie Kurtz, who was the last actor to play Anna in the Broadway run of Frozen, will reprise the role briefly during the national tour, March 17-April 11. This will include performances at Fort Lauderdale's Broward Center for the Performing Arts (March 17-20), Tampa's Straz Center (March 23-April 3), and Greenville's Peace Center (April 6-11). The stop at Peace Center is scheduled through April 17. It has not been announced who will take over the role after April 11.
Kurtz assumes the role of Anna from Caroline Innerbichler, who will play her final performance (at the Broward Center) on Sunday, March 13. Kurtz will perform opposite Ryan McCartan, who will play the role of Hans March 17-April 17, as previously reported.
Based on the hugely popular 2013 Disney animated feature, Frozen tells the story of an enchanted queen who goes into self-imposed exile after her magical powers are exposed. TheaterMania's review of the Broadway run called it, "a perfectly lovely Broadway musical by the standards of every other producer."

Michael Haynie (Olaf), Ryan McCartan (Hans), Mason Reeves (Kristoff), Jeremy Morse (Weselton), Collin Baja (Sven at certain performances), Evan Strand (Sven at certain performances), Olivia Jones (Young Anna at certain performances), Arwen Monzon-Sanders (Young Elsa at certain performances), and real-life sisters Natalie Grace Chan (Young Elsa at certain performances) and Victoria Hope Chan (Young Anna at certain performances).
