The story-telling magic of ABBA's songs propels this enchanting tale of love, laughter and friendship … and everyone's having the time of their lives. Mamma Mia, nominated for five Tony Awards, is the magically musical story of a Mother, a Daughter, three possible Dads, and an unforgettable trip down the aisle! Single tickets not yet on sale.
