Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre added another iconic international theatrical to its repertoire on November 29 with the debut of West End Original smash hit musical MAMMA MIA!
Set on an idyllic Greek island, MAMMA MIA! – one of the longest-running shows at London’s West End – tells the story of single mother Donna and her bride-to-be daughter Sophie, whose quest to discover the father she’s never known brings Donna face to face with three men from her distant romantic past. The heart-warming story unfolds to the timeless hits of legendary Swedish band ABBA.
Sharing her thoughts on the opening day, Mrs. Nita Ambani, Founder and chairperson, said, “True to our vision of bringing the best of the world to India, we are delighted to showcase our first West End presentation, MAMMA MIA! at the NMACC. Known for its foot-tapping music by ABBA, this iconic tale of love, music, and relationships holds universal appeal. I invite all of you to be a part of this joyous celebration and create lots of happy memories with your loved ones this festive season.”
The sensational, feel-good musical filled with the myriad emotions of human relationships has thrilled over 65 million people around the world across 50 productions in over 16 languages. Having love as its driving force, the sunniest of all musicals will take everyone on an emotional rollercoaster and add to the holiday cheer.
The musical production is a treasure-trove of over 22 foot-tapping numbers like ‘Dancing Queen’, ‘Super Trouper’, ‘Honey, Honey’, ‘Voulez-Vous’, ‘Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!’ and many more.
In attendance for the musical’s premiere night were the Founder’s family and prominent names from across industries, as a packed house inside The Grand Theatre sang along to ABBA’s iconic numbers and experienced this West End classic right here in the heart of Mumbai.
