Release Your Inner Dancing Queen.....

2009-07-31T15:08:00.001-04:00

I have to tell you I frequently find myself singing or humming the music from Mamma Mia. I have seen the show a few time and loved it each time! Mamma Mia takes the hit songs by the Swedish supergroup ABBA and shapes them around the story of a single mother dealing with her young daughter's upcoming marriage on a picturesque Greek isle. While the daughter plans her future with the love of her life, her mother is haunted by three different men who may or may not be her daughter's father. Among the songs are such familiar '70s staples as “Dancing Queen,” “Knowing Me, Knowing You,” “S.O.S.,” “Take a Chance on Me” and “The Winner Takes It All.” So if you have not seen this show I recommend you do. It will make you your own Dancing Queen or King for that matter. Don't delay call Applause today!!!! For the best seats at the best prices.

Mamma Mia! Becomes 15th Longest-Running Broadway Show

2009-07-08T10:15:00.000-04:00

Loved the movie with Meryl Streep and thought the Broadway show was pretty darn good as well! Mamma Mia! played its 3,183th performance on June 27, passing Tobacco Road as the 15th longest-running show in Broadway history!!

To mark the occasion, ten real brides-to-be were invited to a post-show meet-and-greet with the cast.
As part of the celebration, Mamma Mia!'s current Sophie, Brandi Burkhardt, threw a bouquet to the competing brides all vying to win a grand prize honeymoon trip to London. The lucky winner who nabbed the bouquet and the trip was Lauren Hopkins Sheridan.
Here is a look at the Saturday-afternoon event held on the stage of the Winter Garden Theatre:

A mother. A daughter. Three possible dads. And a trip down the aisle you'll never forget!
ABBA's greatest hits are woven into a sunny tale set on a Greek island. On the eve of her wedding, a bride's quest to discover her father's identity brings three men from her mother's past back to the place they last visited 20 years ago!

Great deals are available now with Applause Theatre Service! Tickets for this show and all Broadway shows(including London productions) can be purchased by calling a sales expert live at 800-451-9930.

Mamma Mia- A Global Smash Hit!

2009-07-08T10:14:00.000-04:00

Planning a weekend getaway to NYC this summer? Still trying to decide what to see? I have a suggestion, go see Mamma Mia on Broadway. I am a sucker for these kinds of shows. Set on a Greek Island, on the eve of her wedding a girl suddenly realizes one of three men from her mother’s past could be her father. It’s a cute story and of course it has a happy ending!

What really grabbed me with this show was the infectious music of Abba. Mamma Mia brings to life such classic hits such as “Dancing Queen”, “Take a Chance on Me” and “The Winner Takes It All”.

Not only do we sell tickets to shows on Broadway but we also sell tickets to London’s West End. In the spring of 1999 Mamma Mia opened at the Prince Edward theatre. It was a smash hit from opening night. I couldn’t wait to see it. Lucky me, I was going to be in England that summer. Having been at Applause since I graduated college in 1994 I can probably say I have seen pretty much everything that has hit the Great White Way since then. Can I remember what I did before or after the theater for each one? Not really. What I do remember is the first time I saw Mamma Mia. I walked into the Prince Edward theatre full of anticipation. People from all over the world were in the theatre, but we all had one thing in common, our love for Abba’s music. By the end of the show we were all dancing in the aisle to “Dancing Queen” having had the time of our lives. I couldn't wait to come back to the office and let all my co workers know what a great hit Mamma Mia was going to be. How right I was. Don’t believe me? Go see it for yourself.

Millions Of ABBA Fans Can't Be Wrong-Mamma Mia Is Still A Hit!

2009-07-08T09:36:00.001-04:00

Who would have thought that a bunch of old songs from a pop group from Sweden would become a worldwide sensation? I certainly didn't. But what do I know? Truth be told I've never seen Mamma Mia and I probably never will. Now that doesn't mean you shouldn't see it. Just because I don't like it doesn't mean you won't. It's just one man's opinion after all. Now if you decide you do want to see it then you've come to the right place. We can get you tickets to see Mamma Mia at some amazing prices. Sounds pretty good doesn't it? Why not give us a call. You'll be glad you did.
