Based on the Academy Award-winning animated feature film, Disney’s Frozen includes all the film’s beloved songs by Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez, along with new music written exclusively for the stage.
In the beautiful mountainous kingdom of Arendelle, Princesses Anna and Elsa grow up sheltered inside their castle, isolated from the world and increasingly distant from each other. When Elsa is crowned queen, the magical powers she’s desperately tried to conceal from her sister take control, and she flees into the mountains. As a ferocious winter descends on Arendelle, Anna sets off on an epic journey to find Elsa and bring her home – with the help of hardworking ice harvester Kristoff, his loyal reindeer Sven, and a happy-go-lucky snowman named Olaf.
Full of magic, humor, and a stunning musical score, Frozen is a powerful tale of sisterhood, acceptance, and finding the real meaning of true love.

8/8/26: DMV Rising Star KvnLee Celebrates Eight-Year Journey with Milestone Concert at George Mason University
ARLINGTON, VA — Independent hip-hop artist KvnLee (Kevin Lee), widely recognized for his "Soul Music" sound, is set to headline a milestone performance on August 8, 2026, at the George Mason University (GMU) Arlington Mason Square. Titled “GMU’s Saturday Shuffle: 8/8/8 - 8 YEARS N A DAY - KvnLee Live w/ Vybe Wythyn Band,” the event serves as a “BreakThrough” as his 2025 single is titled. A career-defining celebration of KvnLee’s eight-year evolution of his artist journey.&nbsp;

Since his 2018 debut, The Introduction (aka, The Demo), KvnLee (Herndon, VA) has released 4 EPs, and 2 Mixtapes, solidifying a local presence in the DMV Music Scene. However, he has now transformed from a local favorite into a global independent force. His career is marked by explosive digital growth and viral success, including:

<ul><li>Global Viral Phenomenon: His track "This What I Do" sparked over 47,000 user-generated videos on social sites, and peaking at #13 on the USA TikTok Breakout Chart.</li><li>International Chart-Topper: The single "Positive Energy (Affirmations)" reached #1 on the iTunes Charts in Spain. The song has infectious lyrics that connects worldwide, helping it to reach 548,000+ streams on Spotify&nbsp;</li><li>Independent Reach: KvnLee has independently reached a total of 23+ million views on social sites, with over 58,000 videos created by actual people, worldwide, using his sounds to date. Listeners, recently growing his Spotify presence to over 2,500 monthly listeners while maintaining a dedicated Instagram and TikTok following of 7,500+ fans. (Songstats.com)</li></ul>

The upcoming event features The Real DJ Twin the Vybe Wythyn Band and special guests BLK VAN GOH and .WALKING EAGLE, both of whom collaborated on KvnLee’s latest projects. The performance follows the release of his ambitious EP, 703.DMV.BURBAN.Kid, which utilizes NFC technology—allowing fans to access music through custom "drop cards"—a move that signals his trajectory as a tech-forward independent operator, and a business minded artist.&nbsp;

The highly anticipated August 8th performance arrives on the heels of major new music from KvnLee, including his July 3rd single, “What We Do (w/ Life).” Featuring the soulful vocals of Eddie Valoy and a powerful spoken-word message delivered from behind prison walls by BIGHOMIEFROMRESTON, the track offers a profound, soulful three-part journey. Keeping the momentum moving straight into the weekend of the show, KvnLee is also set to drop “New Crown” on August 7th. Produced by SWERV, this high-energy, uptempo record is primed to be a definitive summer anthem, giving fans the perfect taste of what to expect live at George Mason University.

“This show is about more than music; it’s about the work and years my team has put in, the people who have been there providing support, and the community that influences and shapes me, daily”, says KvnLee.&nbsp;

The event will be held outdoors, at The Plaza at Mason Square, 3351 Fairfax Dr., Arlington, VA. 22201.&nbsp; The event is Free and open to all ages of the general public, and will run from 6:30 PM to 8:30 PM.&nbsp; Join us for a Saturday Shuffle on a midsummer’s night of live music, plaza games, and good vibes!!&nbsp;
