Oh Mamma!

You can dance, you can jive, Having the time of your life, Ooh see that girl, watch that scene, Diggin’ the dancing queen! One of my favorite feel good musicals is now at the Saenger here in NOLA. Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus’ MAMMA MIA!, the smash hit musical based on the songs of ABBA, returns to New Orleans presented by the New Orleans Theatre Association and East Jefferson General Hospital Broadway in New Orleans. And it is an dazzling romp that will have you singing along from the moment the curtains raise till they cast leaves the stage.   If you have not seen this show get your tickets now.

Seen by over 54 million people around the world, MAMMA MIA!, is celebrating 5,000 performances on Broadway and is the 9th longest running show in Broadway history. The story is simple, it follows an independent, single mother who owns a small hotel on an idyllic Greek island named Donna who is about to let go of Sophie, the spirited daughter she’s raised alone. For Sophie’s wedding, Donna has invited her two lifelong best girlfriends—practical and no-nonsense Rosie and wealthy, multi-divorcee Tanya – from her one-time backing band, Donna and the Dynamos. But Sophie has secretly invited three guests of her own. On a quest to find the identity of her father to walk her down the aisle, she brings back three men from Donna’s past to the Mediterranean paradise they visited 20 years earlier. Over 24 chaotic, magical hours, new love will bloom and old romances will be rekindled on this lush island full of possibilities. Inspired by the storytelling magic of ABBA’s songs from “Dancing Queen” and “S.O.S.” to “Money, Money, Money” and “Take a Chance on Me,” MAMMA MIA! is a celebration of mothers and daughters, old friends and new family found.
