Backstage: Frozen Jr. and the Power of Finding Your Voice

Hosts Maeve '27 and Anastasia '27 are back and they still haven't "Let It Go." In this episode of Backstage, they sit down with Ms. Nash (formerly Ms. New), the Musical Director of Stuart's 4th-grade production of Frozen Jr., performed last May. Together, they unpack how performing arts, especially for young girls, blend storytelling and emotional expression and how music amplifies your inner power through performance. They also discuss the ways in which musicals like Frozen aren't simply for entertainment, but for connecting in a meaningful way with the characters' journeys (for actors and audience members alike). Special thanks to Tom Poljevka for our intro music, setting the tone for every episode. Tartan Talk dives into life at Stuart Country Day School of the Sacred Heart, a leading preschool to Grade 12 private school in Princeton, NJ designed just for young women. From behind the scenes in the arts to research-backed conversations on what girls and families need to lead with confidence and purpose, each episode brings fresh perspectives from our dynamic team of hosts.
