The Arlington-based Signature Theatre announced today that it will add a brand new production of Mamma Mia! to its season, and produce the show The Anthem, one of the major concert venues in DC, located in the District Wharf area in Washington, DC..
Mamma Mia! will run for two weeks only from June 25 – July 5, 2020.
Set to the music of ABBA’s greatest hits by ABBA songwriters Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus including “Dancing Queen,” “S.O.S.” “Super Trouper,” “The Winner Takes It All,” Mamma Mia! will be directed by Signature Theatre’s Artistic Director Eric Schaeffer and choreographed by Signature Theatre’s Associate Artistic Director Matthew Gardiner.
“For years, we have wanted to make Signature’s musicals available to more audiences,” said Signature Theatre Artistic Director Eric Schaeffer. “This new expansion of our programming provides that opportunity by combining the best talent in Washington theater with the electric atmosphere of a rock concert. We’re excited to put on our dancing shoes and bring this fun-loving musical, featuring 22 ABBA hits in a brand new production, to The Anthem.”
