Puerto Vallarta, Mexico – The fun never stops at Act2PV – the biggest entertainment venue in the Banderas Bay area. New and continuing Las Vegas-style cabaret shows are wowing audiences, ‘Mamma Mia! the Musical’ returns next week, and there’s a fun-filled line-up of music, theater and amusement planned all summer long.
Puerto Vallarta just can’t get enough of MAMMA MIA!
Opening Friday, July 16 at 7:00 pm
Four Shows Only!
Mamma Mia! the Musical, (the original stage production featuring a full cast), is the most exciting production in Puerto Vallarta history. It returns to Act2PV for a limited 4-show run this summer, starting Friday, July 16 at 7:00 pm! Mamma Mia! had a record 58 SOLD-OUT PERFORMANCES at Act2PV before it was forced to close at the start of the pandemic in March, 2020. Act2PV is very grateful to be able to resurrect this “feel good,” show with many of its original cast members, as well as some wonderful new additions.
Directed by Alfonso Lopez, Mamma Mia! the Musical is inspired and enhanced by a whole passel of well-known ABBA tunes. You probably know the story… Sophie, the 20-year old bride, is planning to get married in a little hotel on a Greek island where she has worked with her single mother, Donna, her whole life. Unbeknownst to Donna, Sophie has longed to find the father she has never known. After accidentally finding and secretly reading her mother’s diary, she finds clues that point to three lovers from her mom’s “free-spirited” past that “might” be her father. Sophie secretly invites all three of these men to her wedding and hilarity ensues!
This delightful story features lots of nostalgic singing and dancing, as well as a HUGE cast, an innovative and colorful set design, beautiful custom-created costumes, and brilliant choreography. This is a must-see show that is great for all ages! Tickets at act2pv.com.
MAMMA MIA! is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI). All authorized performance materials are also supplied by MTI.
