An island paradise in Greece sets the stage for the ultimate feel-good show! A daughter’s quest to find her biological father before her wedding brings together three men from her mother’s past. Who will walk her down the aisle ? Will she find out before saying “I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do”?

REVIEWS
“Audiences may flock to Mamma Mia! for ABBA’s hit songs, but will also be moved by a relatable story that touches on the dynamics between parents and children, and the excitement and joy that can come from taking chances at any stage in life. And for those who crave the ABBA experience, don’t worry: the hot dance moves and sequined costumes, complete with bell-bottoms and platform shoes, still make a splash during the show.” –The Georgia Straight
“Energy just pours off The Stanley stage in the big numbers like “Money, Money” or “Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight)”. Overheard: “What do those kids EAT?” Whatever it is, I want some.” – Jo Ledingham
“The perfect summer addiction. Fat-free and sweeter than sugar, take your mom, tease your hair, and holler like its 1975.” –Vancouver Presents
“the fairytale ending of Mamma Mia! never fails to move me” –Colin Thomas
“Make sure to stay through the curtain call medley which is almost as much fun as the whole rest of the show.” –Vancouver Sun
