Who said a wedding couldn't be this much fun? "Mamma Mia!" centers around bride-to-be, Sophie, trying to find her long-lost father to walk her down the aisle. Not knowing which of the three possible men from her mother's diary to invite, she brings all three of them back to the island last visited 20 years ago. With ABBA classics like "Dancing Queen," "Waterloo" and the title number, this smash hit musical is sure to have audiences dancing in the aisles!
