Redundancy on Ice

Anna and Elsa have had millions of parents the world over in their death grips for well over a year now, and there’s little end in sight. Perhaps you’ll recall the Great Merch Freeze-Out of 2014, when parents forked over hundreds of dollars to asshole eBayers for under-manufactured Anna dolls?...

Anna and Elsa have had millions of parents the world over in their death grips for well over a year now, and there’s little end in sight. Perhaps you’ll recall the Great Merch Freeze-Out of 2014, when parents forked over hundreds of dollars to asshole eBayers for under-manufactured Anna dolls? Or that fateful moment last spring when the Disney juggernaut became available to purchase, effectively imposing a total monopoly on every digital device available to children under 8? But it’s still not over, parents. It’s not over by a long shot. Because rolling into town at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday is the performance equivalent of a week of snow days — Disney on Ice Presents: Frozen. Anna, Elsa, Olaf, Kristoff and a variety of little trolls will strap on ice skates and blow kiddie minds in a wintery spectacle that will urge you to “Let It Go” as you stare longingly at your wallet. They’ll love it so much. You’ll live. Tickets are $12 to $80 at ticketmaster.com. The show runs through March 29 at American Airlines Center (2500 Victory Ave.); see disneyonice.com/frozen for details.
Thursdays-Saturdays, 7:30 p.m. Starts: March 26. Continues through March 28, 2015
