Come and enjoy the sunniest of all musicals, MAMMA MIA!
Mamma Mia!, nominated for five Tony Awards, is the magically musical story of a Mother, a Daughter, three possible Dads, and an unforgettable trip down the aisle!
Writer Catherine Johnson’s sunny, funny tale unfolds on a Greek Island paradise. On the verge of her wedding, a daughter’s quest to discover her father’s identity brings three very different men from her mother’s past back to the island they had last visited twenty years ago. The musical includes such hits as “Super Trouper,” “Dancing Queen,” “Knowing Me, Knowing You,” “Take a Chance on Me,” “Thank You for the Music,” “Money, Money, Money,” “The Winner Takes It All,” “SOS,” and “Mamma Mia!”
The storytelling magic of ABBA’s songs propels this enchanting tale of love, laughter and friendship… and everyone’s having the time of their lives.
The Swedish pop group, ABBA took the world by storm in the 70s. The band formed in Stockholm in 1972 by members Agnetha Fältskog, Björn Ulvaeus, Benny Andersson, and Anni-Frid Lyngstad. The group’s name is an acronym of the first letters of their first names.
They became one of the most commercially successful acts in the history of popular music. They topped the charts worldwide from 1974 to 1983. In 1974 ABBA were Sweden’s first winner of the Eurovision Song Contest, with the song “Waterloo.”
In 1999, ABBA’s music was adapted into the successful musical Mamma Mia! that toured worldwide.
The film of the same name, released in 2008, became the highest-grossing film in the United Kingdom that year. A sequel, Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again, was released in 2018. That same year the band had recorded two new songs after 35 years of being inactive.
Performances run from June 23 until August 22. The show is best for ages 5 and up. Adult tickets are $56 and children’s tickets are $43.
