A must see!

Last night, I took my dear closest girlfriends out to see MAMMA MIA! starring Meryl Streep. I figured it would be fun, since it’s posted as a Romantic Comedy Musical… It was FUN-tastic! We were laughing so hard at times we were crying! My ribs ached!

Great sound track – set to ABBA’s great music. Timeless songs such as Dancing Queen, I Have a Dream, Voulez-Vous, and Take a Chance on Me, are ingeniously woven into an enchanting tale of love, laughter and friendship. On the eve of her wedding, a daughter’s quest to discover the identity of her father brings 3 men from her mother’s past back to the Greek island paradise they last visited 20 years ago.

The scenery spectacular and the story was delightful. Since it takes place on a Greek isle, we walked over for gyros afterward. I slept so well last night, and was laughing in my dreams!

There were times the audience broke out in spontaneous applause celebrating the power and strength of women! And talk about the women… in the audience… of all ages… loving this show!  I think we forgot it was only a movie… It was more like we got caught-up in it – as part of the sisterhood.

Pierce Brosnan even has a singing debut! Handsome as ever. And a stretch in character for  “James Bond.”
