Mamma Mia actress leads the cast in lockdown singalong!
Lead actress Mazz Murray helps lift the nation's spirits alongside West End cast of hit show featuring ABBA songs
The West End cast of Mamma Mia aren’t letting lockdown get in the way of belting out chart-topping hits by Abba, which feature in the show.
Having recently celebrated its 21st birthday, the Novello Theatre musical is currently on hold, but that didn’t stop the cast performing from their garages, sofas and even rooftops to help raise the nation’s spirits.
Lead actress Mazz Murray, who plays Donna, says on the video posted to Mamma Mia’s YouTube channel: “While these are all very scary times, the company – who are currently all in isolation obviously – thought we would do something for you that could help lift your spirits. So enjoy!”
First performed in 1999, the feel-good show revolves around a woman named Donna, who does not know which of her three former lovers is the father of her daughter, Sophie, now a grown woman and about to be married.
The musical includes such ABBA hits as Super Trouper, Lay All Your Love On Me, Dancing Queen, Take A Chance on Me, The Winner Takes It All and the titular, Mamma Mia.
