Q: I had tickets to Mamma Mia. What do I do with them?
A: Please just hold onto your tickets (or let our friendly computer hold onto them for you!) We are still planning to produce Mamma Mia, whenever it is safe to do so. Currently, we are hoping we might be able to produce Mamma Mia in fall 2021, but the timetable is contingent upon both construction and COVID schedules, so is subject to change! Your existing tickets will be exchanged to one of our new performance dates once we have them confirmed. We will be in touch with all Mamma Mia ticketholders at that time to coordinate those exchanges.
