“Mamma Mia” the Musical

Your girlfriend will say, “Mamma mia!” when you take her to see “Mamma Mia” the musical at the Cadillac Theatre in downtown Chicago November 10-15, and stay at the nearby and affordable Best Western Plus Chicago Hotel at Hillside!

If you live on another planet, “Mamma Mia” is the smash hit Broadway show featuring the iconic pop/dance songs of the group Abba. The plot is a throwaway affair involving a mother and daughter, a wedding, and a search for three men to find out which one was the daughter’s father (huh?). Every once in a while, the cast breaks out in song: “Mamma Mia,” “Super Trooper,” “Dancing Queen,” “Money, Money, Money,” “Take a Chance on Me,” and many others.

“Mamma Mia” ran for fourteen years on Broadway, the eighth all-time longest New York run, and is playing somewhere in the world every single night of the year. (Fatherly note: avoid high school productions.) The show won a 2002 Grammy Award for Best Musical Album.

“One of the most successful musicals ever.” The London Evening Standard. “A worldwide smash hit.” The Daily Telegraph.

The Cadillac Theatre is located at 151 West Randolph Street in Chicago. For tickets and more information, call (312) 902-1400 or go online to www.MammaMia.BroadwayticketsCenter.com.
