My college classmate, Jen, and I went to watch the final show of the musical "Mamma Mia" at the Pantages in Hollywood tonight.It was exhilarating experiencing ABBA's songs come alive onstage. I grew up listening to the Swedish singing group's music, from which the musical is based, whenever my late dad played the band's audio cassette tapes.
It's amazing how the writers incorporated the band's songs into a cohesive story about a bride-to-be in search of her father so he can walk her down the aisle.
The show is simply phenomenal. It had the audience clapping, cheering and dancing in escalating intensity from prologue to encore.If the musical hits your city, go see it and get your groove going.

i'm sure the musical is great...i watched the movie, it would have been a good movie if the actors knew how to sing
ReplyDeletemas nagustuhan ko yung stage musical. although unlimited ang visuals sa film, mas malawak naman ang interpretation sa stage.
