SENSATIONAL feel-good musical, Mamma Mia, will come to Birmingham this summer as part of its first ever UK tour.
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.
To date, the show has been seen by more than 60 million people in 49 productions in 16 languages and the movie of the same name is the highest worldwide grossing live-action musical film of all time.
With music and lyrics by Benny Andersson and Bjorn Ulvaeus, Mamma Mia is written by Catherine Johnson, directed by Phyllida Lloyd and choreographed by Anthony Van Laast.
The cast includes Sarah Poyzer, Jacqueline Braun, Emma Clifford, Richard Standing, Tim Walton, Christopher Hollis and Lucy May Barker.
Mamma Mia runs at Birmingham Hippodrome from Tuesday, June 28, and Saturday, September 3.
Tickets are priced from £28 and can be booked online at birminghamhippodrome.com or by calling 0844 338 5000.
