Mamma Mia


During the week I had an email from a mate asking me if I wanted to see Mamma Mia on the weekend (01 April 2006), I know a mate asking me to see a play full of white spandex and platform shoes.. A bit gay. But I knew this guy and we had shared a room for at least 6 months so it was all good...
As is becoming more and more normal I was running late. I was sitting at home just finishing my lunch and watching Scorpion King and I was thinking "I'll watch the end of this then do some internet and then head off to see the play". What I didn't realise was that it was 1405 and I was meant to meet outside the playhouse theater at 1410. So I ran out of the flat down the stairs and into a cab and I made it there by 1415.
The show was amazing, great music and dancing, including one show with guys in wetsuits, snorkel and fins.....
It was a story of a girl who was getting married and her search for her father. She found her Mum's diary and it could have been one of three men so she invited them all two the wedding. What followed was a singing dancing comedy where everyone ends up happy.
By the end of the show everyone was standing up and singing along to the songs. I never thought that I was much of an Abba fan but I seemed to know all the words.
