Mamma Mia! Comes to Portsmouth

ON SALE TUESDAY 28TH NOVEMBER

The sensational feel-good musical MAMMA MIA! will come to the Kings Theatre Portsmouth for a total of 20 performances from Friday 8th June 2018 as part of the international tour.

MAMMA MIA! is Judy Craymer’s ingenious vision of staging the story-telling magic of ABBA’s timeless songs with an enchanting tale of family and friendship unfolding on a Greek island paradise. To date, it has been seen by more than 60 million people in 50 productions in 16 different languages. When it was released in 2008, MAMMA MIA! The Movie became the highest-grossing live-action musical film of all time. A second film, MAMMA MIA! Here We Go Again is currently in production and has a global release in July 2018.

From West End to global phenomenon, the London production of MAMMA MIA! has now been seen by more than 10% of the entire UK population. It is one of only five musicals to have run for more than 10 years both on Broadway and in the West End, and in 2011, it became the first Western musical ever to be staged in Mandarin in the People’s Republic of China.

The hugely successful International Tour, since premiering in Dublin in September 2004, has visited 85 cities across 38 countries and sold over 5 million tickets.

Creative Director Armand Gerrard, said: “We are all very excited about hosting such a wonderful production here at the Kings Theatre it is an opportunity for us to demonstrate that we are a premier location for entertainment in Portsmouth and the South coast. “
