From West End production to global phenomenon, MAMMA MIA! is Judy Craymer’s ingenious vision of staging the story-telling magic of ABBA’s timeless songs, with an enchanting tale of family and friendship that unfolds under the sun.
To date, the production has been seen by over 65 million people in 16 different languages across 50 productions. It has grossed an astonishing $2 billion at the box office. In 2011, it became the first Western musical ever to be staged in Mandarin in the People’s Republic of China.
MAMMA MIA! originally opened in London at the Prince Edward Theatre on 6 April 1999, before transferring to the Prince of Wales Theatre in 2004. The musical re-opened at the Novello Theatre in 2012, where it recently celebrated its London 20th birthday on 6 April 2019. The London production of MAMMA MIA! has been seen by over 9 million people, has played over 8,500 performances and has broken box office records in all three of its London homes.
MAMMA MIA! is also known for being a box-office movie hit. Produced by Judy Craymer, MAMMA MIA! The Movie, starring Meryl Streep and Pierce Brosnan, is the highest-grossing live-action musical film of all time, whilst its sequel is the highest-earning musical sequel in history.
