I saw the show on Broadway 2 weeks ago. AWESOME SHOW! I can really really recommend it! It's really nice how they incorporate all ABBAs greatest hits perfectly into a story

You'll LOVE it Trekster! Ignore any critics, just go along for the sheer fun of it all. And I found it all the more enjoyable by the fact that the cast were obviously enjoying it (going by their laughs at the end) as much as the audience.

And I have to say that I played Abba hits nonstop for several days after I had seen the musical

Saw it in Vegas and LOVED it! Of course, I probably annoyed the seat neighbours by singing along...
And marching band is a wonderful thing they do here in the US! Kids of all age groups are in it, guys and gals, great workouts and upper body strength, leg muscles, breathing etc. I can only recommend it!

I must have seen it about 20 times over the past 6 years, and I am going again just before Christmas (and no doubt will book for another show then)! Call me crazy or whatever but it is the only show that I really enjoy, helped by the fact that I have always been an ABBA fan, and a friend was in the ensemble in a previous London stage production.
As many people will know, it is not the story of ABBA but a delightful story set to the ABBA songs and the chemistry is brilliant. The acting, singing and dancing is top-class, and with different actors often playing the main parts, the show feels different every time I go. Without fail, at the end of every show most of the audience gets up and dances when the cast performs an encore of two songs plus another. You always leave the theatre with a feel-good factor.
For me, no show has come anywhere near to the feel-good factor experienced with Mamma Mia. I recently went to Billy Elliot the Musical and the new Wicked, and at both shows I was bored within a few minutes and wishing that I was instead watching Mamma Mia again.
To people like Myt332 who would rather walk on hot coals (or whatever) than see the show, you do not know what you are missing. Mind you, I would not go to a Muse or Madonna Concert for GBP 1 million, so to each his/her own.

If I was gay or mature in my years then I'd go see it . Each to their own indeed! I simply can't stand this kind of 'entertainment'.

Quoting BCAL (Reply 22): Besides, better mature in your years than a spotty teenager!
I love the fact I turned 20 this year. No more stigma!
One Life, Live it.
25 Blackbird07: I've seen it here in New York and I love it It's not the best thing since sliced bread, but definitely a must-see at least once!
26 STLGph: You were bored because you had to think. "Wait...what is going on? Oh, there's actually lyrics to these songs that I don't know so I have to listen?"
27 Planesarecool: What day? I saw it on Broadway on Wednesday 25th October (2 weeks ago today). I agree, it is a great show, with great music.
28 AirPacific747: Oops I was looking at November. I think it was on October 17th. I went back to Europe on the 22nd of October, so it's 3 weeks ago since I saw the mus
