Get ready to say “I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do!” to the smash-hit musical based on the songs of Swedish super-group ABBA, with an international production arriving in Wellington in August 2025 for a strictly limited season. This sunny, funny, international musical phenomenon, made into a movie starring Meryl Streep, unfolds on a Greek island paradise when, on the eve of her wedding, a young woman’s quest to discover the identity of her father brings three men from her mother’s past back to the island they last visited 20 years ago. With music & lyrics by ABBA’s Benny Andersson & Björn Ulvaeus, MAMMA MIA! features non-stop laughs and explosive dance numbers, set to ABBA’s hit songs including Super Trouper, Dancing Queen, Knowing Me, Knowing You; Take a Chance on Me, Thank You for the Music, Money, Money, Money; The Winner Takes It All and SOS.
Over 70 million people all around the world have fallen in love with the characters, the story and timeless music that makes MAMMA MIA! the ultimate feel-good show. We’ll overnight at our favourite Copthorne Oriental Bay Hotel in Wellington with the show being staged at the wonderful St James Theatre.
Produced by the team behind the critically acclaimed recent shows ‘We Will Rock You’ and ‘Les Miserables’, MAMMA MIA! Promises to be the party show of 2025.
