Mamma Mia! Celebrates Three Years on Broadway

The Broadway company of Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus' smash hit MAMMA MIA!, celebrates three years on Broadway on Monday, October 18 before welcoming Carolee Carmello, Liz McCartney, Judy McLane, Daniel McDonald, David Beach, Mark L. Montgomery, Sara Kramer, Aaron Staton and Ben Gettinger on Wednesday, October 2oth at the Cadillac Winter Garden Theatre (1634 Broadway, at 50th Street).

Tony Award ® nominated actress Carolee Carmello (Parade and recent star of Urinetown) will play Donna Sheridan. Liz McCartney (Taboo, Dance of the Vampires) and Judy McLane (recent star of off-Broadway's Johnny Guitar) are Donna's best friends and former back-up band, Rosie and Tanya, who reunite on a Greek island for the wedding of Donna's daughter, Sophie.

Tony Award ® nominated actor Daniel Mc Donald (Steel Pier, High Society), David Beach (Urinetown, Moon Over Buffalo) and Mark L. Montgomery (Shakespeare Theater's Rose Rage) play three men from Donna's past.

Sophie Sheridan will be played by Sara Kramer, who recently starred in the National tour of MAMMA MIA! Her fiancé, Sky, will be played by Aaron Staton, marking his Broadway debut. Ben Gettinger, also making his Broadway bow, plays Sky's sidekick Pepper. The cast also features Keisha T. Fraser (Lisa), Rebecca Kasper (Ali) and Albert Guerzon (Eddie).

Inspired by the story-telling magic of ABBA's timeless songs, writer Catherine Johnson's sunny, funny tale of family and friendship unfolds on a tiny Greek island. On the eve of her wedding, a daughter's quest to discover the identity of her father brings 3 men from her mother's past back to the island they 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. The Broadway production will celebrate its third anniversary on October 18th at the Cadillac Winter Garden Theatre.

There are currently 11 productions of MAMMA MIA! running around the world (8 resident productions and 3 tours). With a worldwide gross of over $1 Billion and audiences of more than 18 million people, MAMMA MIA! is acclaimed by the Associated Press as "quite simply, a phenomenon."

Produced by Judy Craymer, Richard East and Björn Ulvaeus for Littlestar in association with Universal, the creative team responsible for bringing MAMMA MIA! to theatrical life includes some of the most gifted and celebrated talents of musical theatre and opera. With music and lyrics by Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus, MAMMA MIA! is written by Catherine Johnson and directed by Phyllida Lloyd.
