The El Capitan Theatre Offers Spring's 'Coolest' Event With Disney's 'Ice Princess' and a 'Disney Princess Ice Skating Party' From March 18th - April 10th

HOLLYWOOD, Calif., Feb. 24 /PRNewswire/ -- From March 18th through April 10th, Hollywood's legendary El Capitan Theatre (6838 Hollywood Blvd.) will offer moviegoers the "coolest" event of the spring season with the back-to-back royal entertainment experience of Walt Disney Pictures' "Ice Princess," and a "Disney Princess Ice Skating Party," it was announced today (2/24) by Lylle Breier, senior vice president of worldwide special events for The Walt Disney Studios. "Ice Princess," the entertaining new comedy from Disney, features Michelle Trachtenberg as a high school bookworm who trains hard to pursue her dream of becoming a skating champion. Joan Cusack, Kim Cattrall and Hayden Panettiere also star. After the movie, guests can enjoy ice skating, and a visit with their favorite Disney Princesses -- Snow White, Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty and Belle -- on the custom-built 6000 square foot ice skating rink located directly behind the theatre. The skating party will also include lots of other fun activities including a Princess Hair Salon, the Princess Make-Up Counter (with complimentary Lip Smackers), a Fairy Tale Dress-Up area (with replicas of legendary crowns and tiaras), and a game area featuring Hollywood's largest Bounce House. With the movie and skating party activities, there's four hours of family fun for one all-inclusive ticket price at the El Capitan. Daily showtimes are 10:00 am, 1:00 pm, 4:00 pm, 7:00 pm and 9:30 pm (movie only). Tickets can be purchased at the box office, online at www.elcapitantickets.com, or by calling 1-800-DISNEY6. Discounts for groups of 20 or more, or special birthday party arrangements are available by calling 1-818-845-3110.

Commenting on the announcement, Breier said, "In the tradition of some of the fun family events that we've staged at the El Capitan, including the hugely popular Princess Teas, this combination of a great film and an activity-filled Disney Princess Skating Party is one of the best we've ever offered. Guests of all ages, and especially royal princesses, will have a blast with 'Ice Princess' and all of the great entertainment that we've lined up in the skating party area. This is a unique way to spend four hours, and we know that moviegoers are going to have a great time at this very cool event."

"Ice Princess" follows the adventures of brainy Casey Carlyle (Michelle Trachtenberg), who is caught between her fantasy of becoming a championship figure skater, and the wishes of her strong-willed mother (Joan Cusack), who has her on the fast track to Harvard. Casey hopes to be like Nikki, Tiffany, and Gen (Hayden Panettiere) -- three elite skating prodigies who are ruthlessly competing on the US National circuit (and have attitudes to match), and finally gets the break she needs when she trains with Gen and her coach (Kim Cattrall). With the support of Gen's teenage brother (Trevor Blumas), Casey takes on the challenge of her life and finds herself competing against the best to make it into the championship circuit and become a real "ice princess."
