Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus’ MAMMA
MIA!, the smash hit musical based on the
songs of ABBA,
makes a triumphant
return to the Fox Theatre for one week only,
June 3-8 as a special offering of the U.S.
Bank Broadway Series
Curtain times are Tuesday through Friday at
8 p.m., Saturday at 2 and 8 p.m., and Sunday
at 2 and 7:30 p.m. This marks the musical’s
fifth engagement at the Fabulous Fox proving
to be a St. Louis favorite!
Seen by over 30 million people around the
world, Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus’
global smash hit musical MAMMA MIA! is
celebrating 6 sold-out years at the Winter
Garden Theatre on Broadway, and is currently
playing record-breaking engagements in Las
Vegas and on National Tour in the United
States.
The original West End production has played
more than 3,500 performances, an
international tour has played in more than
30 foreign cities, and the feature film of
MAMMA MIA!, produced by Judy Craymer and
Gary Goetzman, will be released on July 18,
2008.
An independent, single mother who owns a
small hotel on an idyllic Greek island,
Donna is about to let go of Sophie, the
spirited daughter she’s raised alone.
For Sophie’s wedding, Donna has invited her
two lifelong best girlfriends—practical and
no-nonsense Rosie and wealthy,
multi-divorcee Tanya - from her one-time
backing band, Donna and the Dynamos. But
Sophie has secretly invited three guests of
her own.
On a quest to find the identity of her
father to walk her down the aisle, she
brings back three men from Donna’s past to
the Mediterranean paradise they visited 20
years earlier.
Over 24 chaotic, magical hours, new love
will bloom and old romances will be
rekindled on this lush island full of
possibilities.
Inspired by the storytelling magic of ABBA’s
songs from “Dancing Queen” and “S.O.S.” to
“Money, Money, Money” and “Take a Chance on
Me,” MAMMA MIA! is a celebration of mothers
and daughters, old friends and new family
found.
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. MAMMA MIA!
has choreography by Anthony Van Laast,
production design by Mark Thompson, lighting
design by Howard Harrison, sound design by
Andrew Bruce and Bobby Aitken, and musical
supervision, additional material and
arrangements by Martin Koch.
The original cast recording of MAMMA MIA! is
available on Decca Broadway.
