GREENSBORO, N.C. – Greensboro College Theatre presents the hit musical “Mamma Mia!,” 7:30 p.m. Thursday-Saturday, Nov. 8-10, and 2 p.m. Saturday and Sunday, Nov. 10-11, in Gail Brower Huggins Performance Center in Odell Building on campus.

Based on the hit songs of the Swedish pop group ABBA, “Mamma Mia!” tells the hilarious story of a young woman’s search for her birth father. This sunny and funny tale unfolds on a Greek island paradise. On the eve of her wedding, a daughter’s quest to discover the identity of her father brings three men from her mother’s past back to the island they last visited 20 years ago.
ABBA’s timeless songs propel this enchanting tale of love, laughter and friendship, creating an unforgettable show. A large cast, nonstop laughs and explosive dance numbers combine to make “Mamma Mia!” a guaranteed smash hit for any theatre. A mother. A daughter. Three possible dads. And a trip down the aisle you’ll never forget!
Greensboro College’s Department of Theatre seeks to provide a strong foundation in theatre while allowing the student to emphasize in a particular area such as directing, acting, musical theatre, or arts administration.
The coursework is integrated with the production work to provide a better understanding of the many facets of the theatre. Required participation on stage or backstage on all theatre productions allows the techniques and theories that are examined in the classroom and the laboratory to be tested in a performance setting.
For more information on the program, contact David Schram at 336-272-7102, ext. 5243, or email schramd@greensboro.edu.
