The global smash hit musical MAMMA MIA! celebrated its 20th anniversary in London’s West End at the Novello Theatre on Saturday 6 April. At the special performance, 13 former ‘Dynamos’, including the original ‘Donna’, Siobhan McCarthy, and the original ‘Rosie’, Jenny Galloway, joined the cast on stage for the Finale ‘Dancing Queen’. The company were joined at the curtain call by producer, Judy Craymer, director, Phyllida Lloyd, book writer, Catherine Johnson, and song writers, Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus.

Since premiering in London in 1999, the irresistible feelgood musical has captured the hearts of millions around the globe. The sunny, funny tale of a mother, a daughter and three possible dads on a Greek island idyll, all unfolding to the magic of ABBA’s timeless pop masterpieces, has now been seen live on stage by 65 million people across the world, and turned into two record-breaking movies – MAMMA MIA! The Movie and MAMMA MIA! Here We Go Again.

To celebrate the musical’s 20th anniversary, the producers of MAMMA MIA! are offering 20 tickets for £20 on the day of performance for every performance throughout April 2019.
