The smash-hit musical Mamma Mia! comes to the Sunderland Empire on its UK & International Tour, with the songs of ABBA.
Mamma Mia! is coming to the Sunderland Empire from Wednesday 25 August to Saturday 4 September 2027, as part of its UK and International Tour. It's the musical built around the songs of ABBA, with Dancing Queen, Super Trouper and Take A Chance On Me among the tracks that make up the score. Since its London premiere, more than 54 million people have seen it worldwide.
Catherine Johnson's story is set on a Greek island paradise and follows Sophie, a bride-to-be on a quest to discover the father she's never known. That journey brings her mother face to face with three men from her distant romantic past on the eve of the wedding, so the whole thing comes to a head just as the big day is about to happen.
The production is part of the show's UK and International Tour, produced by Judy Craymer, Richard East and Björn Ulvaeus for Littlestar in association with Universal and NGM. It's billed as 'the sunniest of all musicals', and that's a fair way to put it given the Greek island setting and the ABBA songs running through it.
