Broadway’s Smash-hit Musical Mamma Mia!, featuring ABBA’s best known songs, returns to Chicago where it played for a record breaking 13 week run in the summer of 2001. Through the story-telling magic of the songs of ABBA, we meet Donna, a feisty forty-something single mom, who recalls distant memories of carefree days and careless nights while her daughter Sophie dreams of tradition, romance and a big white wedding. Mamma Mia! transports us to a tiny mythical Greek island to share two unforgettable days in the lives of our heroines surrounded by crystal blue seas and a beating Grecian sun. The Chicago Tribune called Mamma Mia!, “The Hottest Ticket for A Musical in Years!” Mamma Mia!, features the hit songs “The Winner Takes All”; “Money, Money, Money”; “Dancing Queen”; “Chiquitita”; “Knowing Me, Knowing You”; “Take A Chance On Me”; “Does Your Mother Know”; “I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do”; “Super Trouper” and “Mamma Mia,” among others.
