Mamma Mia!

I recently went to London and had decided to go and see a show but wasn?t sure what to see I was hoping that we may be able to get tickets for The Lion King as a friend had been to see it and loved it but I wasn?t particularly bothered. Before I went I was fortunate to stumble upon a review which included information about the TKTS ticket booth in Leicester Square. Normally I just go straight to the theatre and buy full price tickets, but after reading this review I decided it would be worth visiting if there was a chance that we could get some decent tickets discounted. ...  Read the complete review

Dooyoo like Abba? I Doo I Doo I Doo I Doo I Doo I Doooo! And if you go to see this musical you will love it. The tickets were a surprise gift to me just before Christmas. Hubby managed to get return tickets, very lucky as the show is booked up right until September 2001. Knowing that Abba have a huge gay fan base I expected to see many flamboyantly dressed people in the audience. I was a little worried about what to wear, my wardrobe is sadly a little lacking in 70s spangly outfits. I had to make do with my usual boring black, but managed to find a purple feather boa to wrap around my neck. Not much I know, but looks like I've made a bit of an ...  Read the complete review

Do you get nostalgic for the days of glam rock? Does spandex and white lycra send shivers down your spine? Do you have masses of lipgloss and blue eye shadow you need to use up? If the answer to one of the above is yes, or if you simply want to have a great fun night out then you MUST see Mamma Mia. The paper thin storyline is just an excuse to do some brilliantly choreographed set pieces to most of the best tunes of the most famous thing to come out of Sweden before Ikea. Some of the links to ABBA tunes are groaningly corny (watch out for chiquitita...)But the show, and the encore will literally leave you rocking in the aisles. If you have an ounce of fun in your body, ...  Read the complete review

As an Abba fan of many years standing, I was thrilled when my husband bought tickets for Mamma Mia! as a surprise birthday present. I knew it wasn't the story of Abba, in fact I didn't know anything about it apart from that it featured their music. The story is set on a Greek island and the main event is the forthcoming wedding of a young girl called Sophie to her boyfriend Sky. Sophie lives with her mum Donna who runs a taverna, and while thinking about her wedding Sophie discovers an old diary of Donna's and cannot resist reading it. She has never known who her father is, and on reading the diary Sophie finds out that there are three possibilities ...  Read the complete review
