Who doesn’t like ABBA in some way, on some level? After all, the feel-good foursome was a Swedish hit-making machine in the ‘70s, kicking out chart-toppers like "Dancing Queen," "Knowing Me, Knowing You" and "Mamma Mia," a song that became the title of a popular musical.
From Jan. 4 to Jan. 9, "Mamma Mia" will return to Milwaukee's Marcus Center for a string of shows. Tickets range from $28-$77 and are obtainable online or over the phone. Ticket prices are subject to change. There is one Saturday afternoon matinee on Saturday, Jan. 8 at 2 p.m. and a 1 p.m. matinee on Sunday, Jan. 9. However, the most affordable tickets are weeknight balcony seats.
Björn Ulvaeus and Benny Andersson, two of the four members of ABBA, were involved in the development of "Mamma Mia." Although the title of the musical is taken from the group's 1975 song, the plot is the fictional story about an unmarried tavern keeper on a Greek island who is about to marry off her daughter, Sophia.
