Judy McLane is celebrating her landmark 10 year anniversary starring in Mamma Mia! She holds the distinction as being the longest running principal in the hit musical's global history, having starred in a leading role longer than any other actress in any production of Mamma Mia! around the world.
Now celebrating 13 smash hit years and over 5,475 performances on Broadway at The Broadhurst Theatre (235 West 44 Street), MAMMA MIA! is one of the most successful musicals of all time anywhere in the world and is the 8th longest running show in Broadway history and one of only 5 current musicals to have run for more than 10 years on Broadway.
The movie adaptation of MAMMA MIA! starring Meryl Streep is one of the most successful movie musicals of all time grossing over $600 million worldwide.
Acclaimed by the Associated Press as "quite simply, a phenomenon" MAMMA MIA! continues its success around the world having been seen by over 54 million people, in 39 productions in 14 languages in over 400 cities. The original West End production is now in its 16th year in London.
