musical based on the songs of ABBA, returns to the Centennial Concert Hall in September, 2010.
Performances begin on September 14th and run through September 19th at the Manitoba Centennial
Concert Hall, 555 Main Street, Winnipeg, Manitoba. Seen by over 42 million people around the world, Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus' global
smash hit musical MAMMA MIA! is celebrating 7 sold-out years at the Winter Garden Theatre
on Broadway, and is currently playing a record-breaking engagement on its National Tour in the
United States. The original West End production has played more than 4,000 performances, an
international tour has played in more than 40 foreign cities, and the blockbuster feature film
adaptation, produced by Judy Craymer and Gary Goetzman, is the most successful movie musical
of all time grossing $600 million worldwide. 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.
10:00am. Tickets are available through
Ticketmaster, www.ticketmaster.ca or order by phone at (204) 780-3333. Ticket prices vary in
