The hit ABBA musical will head back to the stage, opening in Denver.
The hit musical Mamma Mia!, which ended its 14-year Broadway run in 2015, will head out on a 25th Anniversary North American tour this fall. The tour will launch at the Denver Center for Performing Arts and continue on to play over 35 cities across North America.
Featuring a soundtrack of ABBA's greatest hits, Mamma Mia! tells the story of a mother, a daughter, and three possible dads on a Greek island paradise. The musical debuted in London in 1999, followed by a Broadway opening in 2001. It has since been turned into two feature films, Mamma Mia! The Move and Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again.
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.
Additional tour cities and casting will be announced at a later date.
