Mamma Mia! at Hull New Theatre
Hit musical at venue next year for six performances only
The sensational feel-good musical MAMMA MIA! will come to Hull for the first time ever for six performances only at Hull New Theatre from Thursday, May 31 to Sunday, June 3 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 and 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 per cent 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.
With music and lyrics by Benny Andersson & Björn Ulvaeus, MAMMA MIA! is written by Catherine Johnson, directed by Phyllida Lloyd and choreographed by Anthony Van Laast. The production is designed by Mark Thompson, with lighting design by Howard Harrison, sound design by Andrew Bruce and Bobby Aitken, and musical supervision, additional material and arrangements by Martin Koch.
The MAMMA MIA! International Tour is produced by Judy Craymer, Richard East & Björn Ulvaeus for Littlestar in association with Universal, Stage Entertainment and NGM.
The MAMMA MIA! International Tour is at Hull New Theatre from Thursday, May 31 to Sunday, June 3 2018. Tickets are from £18 plus £1.50 per ticket booking fee. They go on sale at 10am on Thursday, December 7. Extras members can access 24-hour priority booking from 10am on Wednesday, December 6.
