Anyone going to the 1st preview tonight? Or at all during the run? Would you be kind to give feedback of the performance? I'm interested in seeing a brand new, different, production. I hope they do the show justice!

Just read a review from a subscriber at the 5th. They have been a subscribing there for 25 years, and this production of Mamma Mia will be the first one they go back and see a 2nd time. Also, said they're putting it in their top 3. It's sounding pretty amazing, and the production shots are great.

I saw the show during 3rd preview! It was entirely sold out. Overall, it was a really strong production - Kendra Kassebaum and Paolo Montalban truly shine as Donna and Sam. I was absolutely blown away by Jason Sherwood's set design & the lighting was stunning - I was a little annoyed at how much they seemed to be hyping up the set and lighting, but upon arriving to the theatre, I understood why it was so hyped up. There were a few flubs, but it was overall a really great production. I'm hoping to be able to go back before it closes and see how it changes during the run. I'm not really sure how I feel about the costumes and the more "modern" vibe they were trying to give off -- it didn't seem exactly cohesive...  Happy to answer any questions/go into specifics!

Awesome!! Planning on seeing it this weekend, and I absolutely cannot wait! I guess a major question I have is, how does this production compare to others (not including the new sets, choreography, costumes...) like Broadway or Tour if you have seen them? I caught the Farewell Tour last year which was my first time seeing the stage version, so I'm intrigued by what's new!

This was my fourth time seeing the show live, and I think it was my second favourite, after the first time I saw it internationally? I wish that this production had British accents, but that's a personal preference! I definitely preferred this production to the Farewell Tour, and I think you will too :)

Update: I saw the show last night, and it was F****** AMAZING. I have to say this was better than the tour I saw last year. I’m not one to cheer and yell at a performance, usually just clapping, but man... I could not contain myself. It was EPIC. I highly recommend seeing this production if you can. You won’t regret it. Kendra Kassebaum as Donna was perfect. Her “Winner takes it all” was amazing. “Does your mother know” was FABULOUSLY DONE. The encore.... the encore was incredible. I can’t say enough good things. 5th Avenue you have done this show justice, I will be coming back to see it a 2nd time.
