FROZEN: From the Silver Screen to Broadway
April 10, 2018 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Tuesday, April 10
Program: 7:00 pm
Reception: 8:00 pm
$15 for members, $25 for guests (includes wine)
Join us for an evening with Williams College alum Kristen Anderson-Lopez ’94 (Grammy, Oscar) and husband Robert Lopez (Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, Tony winning co-creator of Avenue Q and The Book of Mormon). Kristen and Robert are the songwriting team behind the blockbuster smash FROZEN – including the Academy and Grammy-award winning song “Let it Go” – and were most recently honored with an Academy Award for their work in Disney-Pixar’s COCO, which won both Best Original Song (for “Remember Me”) and Best Animated Feature. Watch them accept the award here.
Williams professor W. Anthony Sheppard (Princeton GS ’96) will join them to discuss their magical transformation of FROZEN into the new hot ticket musical which opened on Broadway in March. In addition to delving into their creative process and extensive experience in both film and musical theater, Kristen and Bobby will perform examples of songs we already know by heart, as well as new numbers from their Broadway musical. The talk will be followed by a reception where attendees will have the chance to speak with Kristen, Robert, and Professor Sheppard.
