The sensational feel-good musical MAMMA MIA! makes a triumphant return to Singapore and will play at the Sands Theatre for a strictly limited season from 3 November as part of the show’s International Tour.
Described as ‘the sunniest of all musicals’ (Sunday Express, UK) and ‘ABBA-solutely fabulous’ (Bristol Post, UK), MAMMA MIA! is Judy Craymer’s ingenious vision of staging the story-telling magic of ABBA’s timeless songs with an enchanting tale of family and friendship unfolding on a Greek island paradise.
On the eve of her wedding, a daughter’s quest to discover the identity of her father, brings three men from her mother’s romantic past back to the island they last visited 20 years ago. “The perfect ticket for a feel-good night out!” The Daily Telegraph, UK.
To date, the smash hit musical has been seen by more than 60 million people in 50 productions in 16 different languages. When it was released in 2008, MAMMA MIA! The Movie became the highest-grossing live action musical film of all time. A second film, MAMMA MIA! Here We Go Again is currently in production and will be released worldwide in July 2018.
The Chief Executive Officer of Base Entertainment Asia Chantal Prudhomme said, “MAMMA MIA! has been a worldwide phenomenon with people around the globe falling in love with its story and music. Even after years, it continues to attract audiences to come back for more. Whether it’s your first visit or your fourteenth, this stunning production will never be outdated for what the world needs – love, laughter, family and friendship.”
From West End to global phenomenon, the London production of MAMMA MIA! has now been seen by more than 10% of the entire UK population. It is one of only five musicals to have run for more than 10 years both on Broadway and in the West End, and in 2011, it became the first Western musical ever to be staged in Mandarin in the People’s Republic of China.
The hugely successful International Tour, since premiering in Dublin in September 2004, has visited 85 cities across 38 countries and sold over 5 million tickets. The show was last performed in Singapore in 2014 and following its huge success, now makes a welcome return to the city.
The narrative power of more than 22 of ABBA’s greatest hits, including Dancing Queen, Take A Chance On Me, The Winner Takes It All, Does Your Mother Know and of course Mamma Mia, propels this charming story of love, laughter and friendship.
