Acclaimed
by the Associated Press as “quite simply, a phenomenon,” MAMMA MIA! continues
its success around the world having been seen by more than 54 million people in
39 productions in 14 languages in over 400 cities. Now celebrating 13 smash-hit
years and over 5,000 performances on Broadway at the Broadhurst Theatre, MAMMA
MIA! is the 9th longest running show in Broadway history and one of only five
musicals to have run for more than 10 years on Broadway. The original West End
production, now in its 15th year, has celebrated more than 6,000 performances
in London. MAMMA MIA! is one of the most successful musicals of all time and
the movie adaptation starring Meryl Streep and Pierce Brosnan is the most
successful movie musical, grossing $600 million worldwide.
Inspired
by the storytelling magic of ABBA’s timeless songs, MAMMA MIA! is Judy
Craymer’s vision of staging writer Catherine Johnson’s sunny, funny tale of
family and friendship unfolding on a tiny Greek island. On the eve of her
wedding, a daughter’s quest to discover the identity of her father brings three
men from her mother’s past back to the island they had last visited 20 years
ago. Songs including “Dancing Queen,” “The Winner Takes It All,” “Money, Money,
Money” and “Take a Chance on Me” are all featured in this feel-good night of
fun and laughter.
With
music and lyrics by Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus, MAMMA MIA! is written by
Catherine Johnson, directed by Phyllida Lloyd and choreographed by Anthony Van
Laast. The production is designed by Mark Thompson, with lighting design by
Howard Harrison, sound design by Andrew Bruce and Bobby Aitken, and musical
supervision, additional material and arrangements by Martin Koch.
MAMMA
MIA! is produced by Judy Craymer, Richard East and Björn Ulvaeus for Littlestar
in association with Universal.
