Mamma Mia! - It's also a hit in Mandarin

It might not be groundbreaking to present the popular musical Mamma Mia! in Mandarin, but the cost and length of its run with an exclusive copyright license distinguish it from other foreign musicals performed in China.

Produced to the same strict standards as Broadway shows, Mamma Mia! has conquered Chinese audiences in its continuous run of more than 100 performances since July.

The musical by British playwright Catherine Johnson based on hits by the Swedish supergroup ABBA will next be staged in Guangzhou, Guangdong province from Oct 28 to Nov 24.
