Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus' MAMMA MIA!, the smash hit musical based on the songs of ABBA, will mark its 5th return to South Florida audiences when one of Broadways' all-time recordbreaking shows returns Tuesday, July 19 through Sunday, July 24 presented by Florida Theatrical Association at the Broward Center for the Performing Arts, 201 SW Fifth Avenue, Ft Lauderdale, FL, 33312.

Seen by over 45 million people around the world, Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus' global smash hit musical MAMMA MIA!, is celebrating over 4,000 performances in its tenth smash hit year on Broadway'. The current North American Tour has played over 3,600 performances in over 135 cities with 145 repeat visits. The originAl West End production of MAMMA MIA! is now in its twelfth year and has celebrated over 5,000 performances in London. The international tour has visited more than 50 foreign cities and been seen by 3.7 million people.

The blockbuster feature film adaptation of MAMMA MIA!, produced by Judy Craymer and Gary Goetzman, is the most successful movie musical of all time grossing $600 million worldwide.
With a worldwide gross of over $2 Billion, MAMMA MIA! is acclaimed by the Associated Press as "quite simply, a phenomenon."

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.

Now celebrating 10 years at the Winter Garden Theatre, MAMMA MIA! has launched an interactive Sing-Along video contest and opportunity for fans to sing their way to Broadway to celebrate the show's landmark anniversary with the stars. An online celebration that captures the "Dancing in the aisles" experience of the smash hit musical while offering a chance for fans to unleash their inner "Dancing Queen" by singing MAMMA MIA! songs without leaving their own home! Contestants may enter by submitting a video of themselves singing a selection from the ABBA hits Mamma Mia!,
Dancing Queen or Take a Chance on Me while using a computer webcam, or by uploading the video directly to the website, www.mammamiasingalong.com. Fans may vote for each other or their own video. The top ten entries will be entered for a chance to win the Grand Prize.

Smith Hotel and dinner for two at Brasserie 8 ½. On the tenth of each month from now through August, one video submission will be selected at random to win Official MAMMA MIA! merchandise.
