INDIANAPOLIS — Mamma Mia!, the first musical and headliner of Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre’s 45th Anniversary Season, is now on stage through April 8.
Featuring the popular music of the Swedish super-group ABBA, Mamma Mia! is set on a Greek island where Sophie is planning to marry Sky, and wants to invite her father to the wedding. There’s one slight snag — she doesn’t know who he is. But after discovering an old journal belonging to her mother, Donna, she learns her father is one of three possible men: Sam Carmichael, Bill Austin, or Harry Bright. So Sophie decides to invite all three — unbeknownst to her mother and her fiancé.
More than 20 toe-tapping ABBA hits include “Dancing Queen,” “Take A Chance on Me,” “Honey, Honey,” and the title tune: “Mamma Mia.” Nominated for seven Tony Awards, including Best Musical, Mamma Mia! also was a 2008 box office favorite film.
Mamma Mia! is on stage for 66 performances in the intimate atmosphere of Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre. Tickets range from $44 to $69, and include Chef Odell Ward’s dinner buffet, fruit & salad bar, unlimited coffee, tea and lemonade. For reservations, call the box office at 317-872-9664 anytime between 10 a.m. and 7 p.m. Tuesday through Sunday and from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Mondays.
