Mamma Mia international tour to visit Blackpool

For the first time in more than 10 years Blackpool is hosting a Summer Season of a major West End musical production. The International Tour of the worldwide hit Mamma Mia will be staged exclusively in the resort with Blackpool Opera House being the only UK date outside of London to host the production next year.

The exciting announcement follows negotiations with the show’s producers Littlestar services LTD, Blackpool Council, Marketing Blackpool, the Winter Gardens and Apollo Leisure working in partnership to bring this global phenomenon to Blackpool.

Mamma Mia's Creator and Producer Judy Craymer said “Following 14 years of producing Mamma Mia all over the world, we are extremely excited to be playing a summer season in Blackpool. We are sure audiences will find it the perfect place to have the time of their lives!”

Natalie Wyatt, Managing Director of Marketing Blackpool, added “This is a fantastic coup for Blackpool and one which we believe will help boost our ability in terms of attracting visitors, in particular those who wish to come and stay in the resort. We also hope it will help our night-time economy and of course support the wider businesses. It also represents a great opportunity to showcase a regenerated Blackpool to the rest of the UK.”

Mamma Mia runs at the Opera House Blackpool between 20th June and 31st August 2014.
