"Knowing Me, Knowing You", I say be a "Super Trouper" and "Take a Chance on Me." "Honey, Honey," I want to be your "Dancing Queen."
I have always loved ABBA. Growing up in the 70s and early 80s these songs played often. When my kids were little a group called A-Teens came on the scene (a.k.a. ABBA Teens). My daughter took a liking to that sound of music and became a huge ABBA fan as well. When we took the kids to Disney World in 2006 there was a group playing a show in Epcot Center called "Bjorn Again." It was so much fun getting to sing along with them.
Tonight, a good friend of mine treated me to the Broadway production of "Mamma Mia." It was so much fun. I love this show so much that I own it on DVD...times 2! You know, just in case one gets warn out. The Broadway show was almost identical to the movie, and vice versa. This show had an amazing cast. There was a lot of talent on that stage tonight. The music moved me so that I wanted to get up and dance and sing along with them. There were even a few ladies who "dressed up" for the show, go-go boots and all! I guess some people really get into the experience.
Speaking of dress-up, the costumes worn in this production were amazing. The costumes created for Donna and the Dynamos were very much ABBA. All-in-all, this show was definitely one to remember. It was one of those shows that when it was over, you wish it wasn't. These are the times you wish you could just hit a repeat button and continue the fun.
