Set on a sun-soaked Greek island, MAMMA MIA! follows bride-to-be Sophie as she secretly invites three men from her mother Donna's past—hoping to discover which one is her father. As old flames reunite and chaos unfolds, this feel-good musical bursts to life with ABBA's greatest hits.
Since its West End premiere in 1999 and Broadway debut in 2001, MAMMA MIA! has become one of the most successful jukebox musicals of all time. Nominated for five Tony Awards, including Best Musical, MAMMA MIA! is a joyful celebration of love, family, and friendship that will have you singing and dancing in your seat!
“MAMMA MIA! It's a party and you're all invited! This iconic musical, headlined by a diverse and strong group of women, is a story about joy in a chosen family,” shares director Kassy Skoretz. “As Harry says, ‘There's all kinds of families, aren't there?' Families don't come in one size or configuration; this play celebrates the work we do that makes family. Sophie reminds us ‘[our] destination makes it worth the while, pushing through the darkness, still another mile.' In this moment in time, I hope you come and revel in imagining our destination; renew yourselves for another mile by celebrating the return of family, the creation of new bonds, and the dreams that keep us going together.”
