Linnea’s choice of activity for this weekend was Harry Potter World. Mine was ABBA Voyage, the ”Abbatar”-show. Unfortunately the Abbatars were on a show break JUST this weekend, while they were changing their playlist apparently. So the next best thing - we got tickets for Mamma Mia The Party!
This is why we had got a hotel close to the O2 Arena, to be close by to the show.
We had misunderstood the timing a little bit, as the ‘doors open’ was at 12pm, but the show didn’t start until 1pm, so we were really early, a bit unnecessary. Ah well, gave us more time to enjoy the pitchers of Passionfruit Cocktails..!
We got a table on one of the balconies, which turned out to be a great spot, as we could get up and dance whenever we felt like it without disturbing the show.
It was a really lovely afternoon! The food was surprisingly good, a Greek three-course meal, and the performers were great.
I had mistakingly thought it was the Mamma Mia-musical, but in a restaurant setting; but indeed this is a completely different show. The storyline was still based in a restaurant in Greece, and with all the music from ABBA (and others), but apart from that, it had little to do with Mamma Mia. Don’t get me wrong, it was still really good!
The whole place was full and the atmosphere buzzing from the first musical number. People were having so much fun singing along and dancing next to (and on top of!) the tables. Us too!
I am really happy we did this together!
