Wonderful show and a brilliant cast. I was a Rock and Roller and never really "got" ABBA but this was just thoroughly enjoyable. I went because an " out of town" friend suggested it and I thought I would "suffer" it so she had an enjoyable visit but I would recommend it to anyone and go again next week in a heartbeat.

My family and I went to see this Mamma Mia show during our trip to London! We bought the tickets not very much on time, but the view was perfect- sitted on J13! Not very much room for legs , but quire confortable. From the very first scene to the final bow, we enjoyed every single moment of it. It was an amazing experience! The show, the music, the energy and the vivid colours on stage were absolutely great. The ABBA music created a captivating atmosphere. People around us, and of course us, were fascinated by the show! We enjoyed every single moment of it. The cast was incredile into their roles . It was a spectacular performance and unforgettable experience for all of us! Loved it.

The centenary celebration has been one of the most beautiful and versatile ballet performances that we have ever seen (and we have experience of Bolshoy and Kirov Theatres). It has been definitely a milestone in the history of Covent Garden theatre, as the selection of ballet pieces reflected the development of the Royal ballet. We liked the concluding piece with all the students of the Royal Ballet school. It is unforgettably brilliant.

Famous, timeless, and catchy ABBA songs make it easy to follow the musical even if the dialogue is tough to understand without mastering Shakespeare's language. A very cozy concert hall with sets well worth the trip! A party atmosphere. In short, everything was there to make this evening in London unforgettable!

Judy Craymer’s ingenious vision blends ABBA’s timeless songs with an enchanting tale of family and friendship, set on a Greek island paradise.

A global phenomenon seen by 70 million people in 16 languages. It has grossed over $4 billion and was the first Western musical staged in Mandarin.

Originally opening in 1999, the show played at the Prince Edward and Prince of Wales theatres before making the Novello Theatre its home in 2012.

Now in its 27th year, it has surpassed 10,000 performances and 10 million viewers in London alone. Book your tickets to MAMMA MIA! in London now!

A wonderful musical with extraordinary actors. The music is captivating. The theater is a gem. We saw the show for the second time, and for anyone seeing it for the first time, I recommend the orchestra seats because from the balcony you have to lean forward to see some scenes.
