About Mamma Mia! The Party
MMTP successfully launched at a specially built venue in The O2 in 2019. The team have created an ‘outdoor’, Greek taverna with the aim of transporting the 500-dining guest audience for a few hours to the Greek island of Skopelos seven performances per week, Wednesday to Sunday. It has the splendour and the real-life detail of a high-budget movie set. The project is produced by Björn Ulvaeus from ABBA.
