I have never managed to sit through an entire episode of BBC Television’s The Great British Bake Off, despite its 2013 and 2016 BAFTA awards for Best Feature.

5-Star Review of Mamma Mia! It’s a lovely story, really, with enough twists and turns to maintain interest to the end, with a happy musical ending... Review by Chris Omaweng
5-Star Review of Mamma Mia! So, at the end of 2 hours what can I tell you? Forget the movie, this is actually so much better. A show that is suitable for all ages with the timeless music of Abba, a wonderfully energetic, young, fit and attractive cast and a lovely story which sticks to many of the traditions of musicals and yet isn’t afraid to break them as well.

You’ve got to hand it to the producers of Mamma Mia!, who sell an ‘original’ cast recording at the kiosks stationed in the foyer of the Novello Theatre.
