After breaking every rule on the Las Vegas Strip, MAMMA MIA! raises the bar again as it prepares to welcome its 2 millionth guest at Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino on Thursday, December 13, 2007.  Based on the songs of ABBA, MAMMA MIA! continues to be the longest-running and most successful full-scale Broadway musical to ever hit Las Vegas.

Currently in its fifth year, MAMMA MIA! sets the precedent for Broadway musicals in Las Vegas.  Since premiering on February 13, 2003, this beloved show has remained an absolute sensation and a locals' favorite that keeps the audiences dancing in the aisles night after night.


MAMMA MIA! has broken all box office records at Mandalay Bay Theatre and continues to be one of the most profitable productions of the nine around the world.  Named the "Number #1 Show in Las Vegas" in 2004 by Mike Weatherford of the Las Vegas Review-Journal, this smash hit musical is infectious with it's unforgettable musical score and irresistible comedic plot.


Seen by over 30 million people worldwide, and with three companies currently playing in North America, MAMMA MIA! has more productions playing around the world than any other current Broadway musical. The phenomenon that Liz Smith calls "The most popular musical in the world!," has surpassed a gross of $2 Billion in worldwide box office sales.


Inspired by the story-telling magic of Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus' songs, writer Catherine Johnson's sunny, funny tale of family and friendship unfolds on a Greek island.  On the eve of her wedding, a daughter's quest to discover the identity of her father brings 3 men from her mother's past back to the island they last visited 20 years ago.  Songs including "Dancing Queen"; "The Winner Takes It All"; "Money, Money, Money" and "Take A Chance on Me" are all featured in this feel-good night of fun and laughter.


With music and lyrics by Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus, MAMMA MIA! is written by Catherine Johnson and directed by Phyllida Lloyd. MAMMA MIA! has choreography by Anthony Van Laast, production design by Mark Thompson, lighting design by Howard Harrison, sound design by Andrew Bruce and Bobby Aitken, and musical supervision, additional material and arrangements by Martin Koch.


MAMMA MIA! is produced by Judy Craymer, Richard East and Björn Ulvaeus for Littlestar in association with Universal.


MAMMA MIA!  is playing currently in nine productions around the world performed in four different languages.


Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino is a 3,300-room luxury destination resort set on 60 acres on the Las Vegas Strip.
