1    Review by: zm, Dec 9, 2008
I saw this show last month and I was blown away. I've seen performances both on and off broadway before and I can't remember being this enthralled. I would recommend this show to anyone visiting NY for a unique tourist experience. I was particularly impressed with the actor who played the role of Sky. He did an amazing job, as did everyone else.

4 My Momma Loved It!!!   Review by: G, Nov 26, 2008
Wow! I have never given my mom a better birthday present. In May 2007 my parents went to celebrate my mom's birthday and she said she wants to take me next! She told all of her friends and always recommends this show. If you want a fun experience like this see Momma Mia!

5 Leaves you happy all over   Review by: Mamma Mania, Sep 30, 2008
The energy I get everytime I see this show is amazing! If you want an upbeat, happy play Mamma Mia will not disappoint you. I've seen many other plays including Wicked, Legally Blonde and Phantom, and they're all good, but this is the ONLY one I wanted to see again (I've seen it 8 times)and I love it more everytime I go.

6 Tremendous Time   Review by: jerry1, Sep 29, 2008
A wonderful show. It was funny, engaging and had you toe tapping. I'm not a huge Abba fan so I was a little unsure how I would enjoy it. Left there humming the tunes, bought my wife the CD & couldn't wait to see the movie also....

7 A DEFINATE MUST FOR A FANTASTIC FIRST CLASS SHOW AAAAAAA   Review by: Lyn from UK, Sep 2, 2008
August 31st 2008
WOW what can I say !
This is a definate must to see. Great fun and absolutely fantastic singing from the cast. Anybody who doesn't like this must live a really dull life. Its amazing - even with an understudy in the leading role of Donna (played by Lori when we saw it), Lori had the most beautiful and powerful voice imaginable. Wish I was in NYC longer as would have seen it again. I can see why they have standing ... read more

8 Mamma Mia, Here I go again..............and again........and again!!!!   Review by: Espozuno, Aug 21, 2008
WOW!! What a fantastic show. We have seen it three times already on Broadway and once on the movie screen with Meryl Streep. It was fun and energetic. A true ABBA fan would enjoy this. I would definitely see it again and would tell everyone that it is worth the time and money spent!!

9 Not worth your evening   Review by: , Aug 17, 2008
I took my adult daughter for a special New York treat - not an enjoyable evening for either of us. If you are looking for something silly, not great singing and much exaggerated acting you may enjoy your evening. A waste of a night in New York for us.

11 Mamma Mia! How Can I resist ya?!    Review by: K(:, Aug 3, 2008
It was a really great production. I saw it with a school group and at the end of it I was literally singing and dancing along to all of the songs! If you are an ABBA fan, this musical is a MUST SEE! The songs flowed seamlessly into the fun, clever plotline-one that kept you entertained from start to finish. It had a slightly adult theme, and parts were a little crude, but I think kids could still see it and enjoy themselves. I recommend this ... read more

12 Oh Mamma Mia!   Review by: VandyGirl, Jul 28, 2008
What a fantastic show! I have seen the show several times before, the first in London in 2001. This show definitely rivaled the first time I saw it. It is such a fun and upbeat show you can't help but enjoy it. There is a light-hearted story, good dancing and singing, and even a little humor. The encores at the end are great for the audience and leave you wanting more. I can't wait to see it again.
