Seen by over 54 million people around the world, "Mamma Mia!" is celebrating 5,000 performances on Broadway and is the ninth longest running show in Broadway history. The original West End production of "Mamma Mia!" is now in its 15th year and has celebrated more than 6,000 performances in London, while the international tour has visited more than 74 foreign cities in 35 countries and been seen by over 4.3 million people.
The musical tells the story of 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.
