Mamma Mia! celebrates 25 years

Global smash hit to play in Tulsa this April

Tulsa’s Celebrity Attractions will present MAMMA MIA! this April.

Since premiering in London in 1999 and on Broadway in 2001, the irresistible musical has captured the hearts of millions worldwide. The sunny, funny tale of a mother, a daughter and three possible dads on a Greek island paradise, all unfolding to the storytelling magic of ABBA’s timeless songs, has now been seen live on stage by 70 million people worldwide and turned into two record-breaking movies – Mamma Mia! The Movie and Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again.

To date, Mamma Mia! has been seen in 50 productions in 16 different languages, grossing more than $7 billion at the box office. 

The 25th Anniversary production of Mamma Mia! made a triumphant return to Broadway in August 2025 for a limited six-month run at the Winter Garden Theatre, where it had its first Broadway opening in 2001.

Mamma Mia! played for a record-breaking 14 years on Broadway, first at the Winter Garden Theatre, then at the Broadhurst Theatre. The show also toured North America from 2000 to 2017, with four different touring companies.

Produced by Judy Craymer, Mamma Mia! The Movie became the highest-grossing live-action musical film of all time upon its 2008 release. A second film, MAMMA MIA! Here We Go Again, which opened in July 2018, is the most successful live musical movie sequel of all time. The films starred a host of stars, including Meryl Streep, Christine Baranski, Julie Walters, Pierce Brosnan, Colin Firth, Stellan Skarsgård, Amanda Seyfried, Dominic Cooper, Lily James and Cher.

With music & 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 & Bobby Aitken, and musical supervision, additional material & arrangements by Martin Koch.

Mamma Mia! is produced by Judy Craymer, Richard East & Björn Ulvaeus for Littlestar in association with Universal Music Group. Amy Jacobs of Bespoke Theatricals is the Executive Producer in association with Work Light Productions.
