ABBA Documentary Airs in Time with Mamma Mia! Tour
Super Troupers includes a 90-minute documentary plus 30 minutes of extras. Exclusive, in-depth interviews will feature all four members (shot in Sweden and London). Digitally re-mastered archival footage reaches back to the pre-ABBA '60s, with highlights of ABBA on tour and on stage, and the music of 24 of the group's hit records. Super Troupers also features exclusive footage from both rehearsals and performances of Mamma Mia!, highlighted by the London 5th Anniversary Gala Special Finale, a medley that includes "Mamma Mia," "Dancing Queen" and "Waterloo."
Mamma Mia! opened on Broadway at the Winter Garden Theatre (1634 Broadway)
on October 18th, 2001, and has played over 1600 performances in New York. Mamma Mia! takes
place on a tiny Greek Island, as a mother and daughter try to settle
the girl's paternity before her wedding. The show is set to the songs
of ABBA's Bjorn Ulvaeus and Benny Andersson, with hits including
"Dancing Queen," "Money, Money, Money" and "The Winner Takes It All." John Dossett and Michele Pawk currently star in the show.
Mamma Mia!'s
book is by Catherine Johnson, with direction by Phyllida Lloyd and
choreography by Anthony Van Laast. Produced by Judy Craymer, Richard
East and Ulvaeus for Littlestar in association with Universal, the
musical features production design by Mark Thompson, lighting design by
Howard Harrison, sound design by Andrew Bruce and Bobby Aitken and
musical supervision, additional material and arrangements by Martin
Koch.
