I saw Frozen The Musical, and here’s what I really thought

If you’ve had children of your own, or have been around children since 2013 when Disney first released Frozen, you’ll know the words to “Let it Go” and “In Summer” off by heart. It was absolutely everywhere, and I know that I was a super fan back then alongside friends and family. When movies are made into musicals, I often wonder if the same magic gets translated into sets, special effects, and costume design.

Here Is Everything You Need To Know About This Year’s Fire & Ice Winter Festival

As you would have noticed over the last few years since moving to Ottawa, I have made a concerted effort to showcase the city in a refreshing way. I think for a long time there was a stigma associated with the nation’s capital – one I can admit I didn’t help to stop in my youth – that it has no culture and nothing to get excited for.
