After 8 successful years at the Prince of Wales theatre, Mamma Mia is to pack its bags and dance off to the Novello theatre next September. The producer of Mamma Mia, Judy Cramer, commented: “I am delighted that the original production of Mamma Mia! will move to the stage of the beautiful Novello theatre. It is a perfect space for the musical. The Novello is a gem of a theatre that perfectly suits the creative needs of Mamma Mia!, and provides a comfortable and friendly experience for audiences in the heart of Theatreland.”

Mamma Mia opened its doors in London in 1999. It has been seen by more than fifty million people and is only one of 5 musicals that have run in the West End and Broadway for more than 10 years. It is set on a Greek island and is the story of a young girl called sophie who is desperate to find her father as her wedding draws closer. Three possible men come forward and turn Sophies world upside down. Featuring many of ABBA’s hits, this toe tapping musical will have you dancing in your seats!
