The first Broadway revival of the beloved musical, opening this August, will take place at the Winter Garden Theatre, where the show originally premiered.
My, my, how can we resist them? Complete casting has been announced for Mamma Mia! on Broadway, beginning performances at the Winter Garden Theatre on August 2 ahead of an August 14 opening.

For its first Broadway revival, Mamma Mia! returns to the same venue where it premiered in 2001, going on to have a 14-year Broadway run. The beloved musical comedy follows a young woman who invites all three of her possible dads to her wedding — much to her mother's surprise — and is set to the songs of ABBA.
This production also reunites the original creative team: songwriters Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus, book writer Catherine Johnson, director Phyllida Lloyd, choreographer by Anthony Van Laast, production designer Mark Thompson, lighting designer Howard Harrison, and sound designers Andrew Bruce and Bobby Aitken. Musical supervision, additional material, and arrangements are by Martin Koch.
