About Mamma Mia(musical)
Modernshadow
*Mamma Mia* is a jukebox musical built around ABBA’s pop-rock catalog, with a story by playwright Catherine Johnson that links romance, family history, and a wedding-day search for identity. The songs, written by Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus, stay central to the show’s structure, turning familiar choruses into plot beats. In New York, it became a long-running Broadway fixture in the 2000s and helped normalize the jukebox format as mainstream theater. Now appearing at City Winery NYC and the Longacre Theatre, it reads best when the staging trusts the material’s plain, melodic momentum.
