Sometimes that's just the name of the Broadway game. After almost 14 years on the Great White Way, first at the Winter Garden Theatre, where it opened on October 18, 2001, and then at the Broadhurst Theatre, where it began performances on November 2, 2013, Mamma Mia! will shutter on September 5, 2015. At the time of closing, the ABBA-tastic musical will have played 5,765 performances. Mamma Mia! 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.
