Preview: ‘Dare to Dream’ Disney on Ice at Golden 1 Center

Disney on Ice brings magical stories to cities across the country, but the Dare to Dream show’s stop in Sacramento also brings two sisters back to their hometown. Tosha and Marie Hanford, who play Princess Anna from Frozen and Moana from Moana, respectively, are originally from the area. They cut their skating teeth at the Ice Arena in Roseville, have both been on ice for the past 20 or so years, but only recently performed together, as Tosha explained in a phone interview. “Two seasons ago, we asked, if it were possible, could we possibly get on the same tour?” she said. “The rest is history.” Now they’re playing their biggest roles ever—a result of their showing characteristics and abilities similar to their characters—in front of friends and family. “To play for your home city,” Tosha said, “it’s an amazing feeling, and both of us have been really looking forward to it for quite some time.” Thu 7pm, Fri 7pm, Sat 11am, 3pm& 7pm, Sun 11am, 3pm & 7pm, Mon 12pm & 4pm. Through 2/18; $20-$135; Golden 1 Center, 500 David J. Stern Walk; (916) 840-5700, golden1center.com.
