Mamma Mia! will reach its Waterloo a little later. The production will now close on Broadway on September 12; it had previously been set to shutter on September 5 at the Broadhurst Theatre. The ABBA-tastic musical currently stars Judy McLane as Donna and Elena Ricardo as Sophie.
The long-running tuner tells the story of Sophie Sheridan (Ricardo), a young bride who invites three possible dads to walk her down the aisle at her wedding—unbeknownst to her mother, Donna (McLane). Directed by Phyllida Lloyd, the show features music and lyrics by Benny Andersson and Bjorn Ulvaeus and a book by Catherine Johnson.
In addition to McLane and Ricardo, the cast of Mamma Mia! includes Mary Callanan, Alison Ewing, Jon Jorgenson, Paul DeBoy and John Hemphill.
