Align with your true power & courage
Like the fairytale, the story looks at how our negative or positive perceptions alter our thoughts and emotions and either support or prevent us from coming into alignment with everything we want to create and our own potential. Learn more

About the Show
Alpha’s The Snow Queen brings Hans Christian Andersen’s timeless tale to life with humor, adventure, and powerful lessons. At the heart of the story is the importance of staying true to your inner sense of joy and clarity, seeing things as they truly are, not worse than they seem. While our version doesn’t follow the exact plot of the original fairytale, it uses its themes and characters to weave an inspiring narrative that resonates with today’s audience.
This classic story and its characters are beloved by many, and we’ve taken a fresh approach to share the deeper lessons of the fairytale. We’ve combined its themes with new ideas about aligning with your true potential, overcoming fear with courage, and embracing who you truly are. Central to our retelling is the theme of love—not the traditional romantic kind, but the bond between two sisters, whose relationship holds the key to redemption for everyone.
The metaphors in this show reach deep, touching something profound within us all. With high energy, a fun pace, and a blend of familiar Alpha humor alongside some new, never-before-seen gags, you’re in for a treat. Our show features both old favorites like the Snowman Olav and Bac the Reindeer, as well as fresh characters, including the empowering ‘Clever Princess’ who teaches our heroes how to find strength within themselves. And of course, there’s the Snow Queen—a compelling villain representing the negative forces we face in life today.
We know you’ll love this exciting, heartwarming, and fun-filled experience, packed with the same magic and energy that makes every Alpha show unforgettable!

Values Theme: ALIGNMENT & COURAGEInformation: Elsa finds herself with powers that she can’t control, and is scared to be herself and use them. As a result, she suffers from being ‘out of alignment’ with that which you wish to create and the experiences she desires. Her sister Anna, through courage and strength, goes on an adventure that mimics her own mother’s journey years ago (from the fairytale) to save her sister and help her come into alignment with her potential. The ‘Clever Princess’ teaches Elsa the way to focus your thoughts to stay in alignment so as to not manifest everything you don’t want, and as a result, she and Anna save each other and Elsa becomes the ‘One True Queen’ after defeating the contrast experience personified by the ‘Snow Queen’.
