Dunedin Ice Skating Club skaters will present Snow Queen on Ice from December 17 to 19 at the Dunedin Ice Stadium.
The show is inspired by the Hans Anderson tale that Frozen was also based on.
Skater Zara Anthony-Whigham, who plays Elsa, said it was about romance and heartbreak, although the truest love was the strong sisterly bond between characters.
"The show was in the works for last year but couldn’t happen because of Covid," Zara said.
The Covid-19 pandemic cancelled many of this year’s big events, including the national championships, so skaters were excited to finally perform.
Hannah Sime, who plays Princess Anna, said it was "really nice to have something to work towards".
There was uncertainty around whether the show could go ahead until the Government’s traffic light system was announced but things had been all go since then, Hannah said.
Tim Bradfield, who plays Prince Hans, said the show would feature different skating disciplines — including partner, synchronised and solo — and skaters of a range of ages.
Other skaters include Brooke Cathro as Olaf, Jazz Evangelou as Sven and Tama Anthony-Whigham as Prince Hans.
