Review: MAMMA MIA at Orpheum Memphis
Mamma Mia... here we go again! The hit musical has returned to Memphis and is a fantastic ending of the 2023-2024 season. It's a smash hit but what makes it so popular?

Guilty as charged. I openly admit I really enjoy the ABBA musical, MAMMA MIA!

And it most certainly succeeds.
