Energy! Energy! Energy! Mama Mia described concisely!
Review by: , Mar 11, 2009

My friend and I saw Mama Mia as a 'last thought' on the last night of our Broadway visit; we left the show so energized. I think the music of Abba kindled old memories or our days in the 70's. We love this show and want to see it again. Great production, the music and the talent impressed us!!!!!

For ABBA fans ONLY
Review by: Randy, Jan 8, 2009
|
|
I can't figure out why this show is so popular. The actors greatly exaggerate their gestures as if they were entertaining children, the choreography is amateurish and the story, while it has a few funny moments, is just shoe-horned into the ABBA songs. Sometimes the song wasn't even appropriate for what was going on in the show. I really wish I had just gone to see the movie, I would have saved a lot of money and gotten to see Meryl Streep!

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.

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!

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.

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....

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 ovations every performance.

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!!

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.

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 light-hearted, fun musical for pre-teens, teens, and adults, especially. Mamma Mia! was surely a musical treat and one of Broadway's best! Go see it! You won't be disappointed!
