ABOUT THE SHOW:

This winter, the gates are opening at StarStruck.

Join us in the kingdom of Arendelle for Disney’s Frozen, a breathtaking musical adventure filled with unforgettable characters, stunning music, and a story that reminds us that love, courage, and connection can thaw even the coldest winter. Follow Anna, Elsa, Kristoff, Sven, and Olaf on an epic journey through snowstorms, self-discovery, and the bond between sisters that changes everything.

From soaring musical moments to magical stage transformations, Frozen brings one of Disney’s most beloved stories to life in a way only live theatre can. Whether you dream of stepping into the spotlight or cheering from the audience, this is a season you won’t want to miss.

Think you belong in Arendelle? Audition opportunities will be announced soon, with information on dates, materials, age groups, and everything you’ll need to prepare. Performances are also coming soon, so stay tuned for official show dates, ticket details, and all the winter magic ahead.

ABOUT MAINSTAGE PARTICIPATION:

MainStage musicals at StarStruck are an unforgettable experience for the whole family as we create a Broadway caliber musical production to be performed on the big Smith Center stage at Ohlone College. After passing an initial audition, actors are required to be available to rehearse up to 4 days per week at the Fremont StarStruck Studios (September-December), and 6-7 days/week once we're at the theatre for technical and dress rehearsals. The cast is mostly actors who have participated in several classes, camps, or MainStage musicals (at StarStruck or other theatre companies), but on occasion a few theatre new-comers have been admitted as well. While rehearsals can be demanding, young actors learn the importance of time management and confidence of doing what they love while making friendships that will last a lifetime. Check out this article to see the  25 life skills that are learned when participating in a theatrical production.

Prepare: Please prepare a 2 minute song from a Broadway style musical (Not from Frozen).

Limited partial and full scholarships are available- apply here. Contact MainStage.StarStruck@gmail.com for more information.
