Jul 20, 2018 · As you’ve probably gathered, we’re very much behind ‘Mamma Mia’ as a song. Thoughtfully composed with lyrics that actually match the music (surprising how often this doesn’t happen), there are endless corners for theory geeks to explore.

Though Mamma Mia! wasn’t the first, it did spark a sort of craze for jukebox musicals—when a band’s catalogue is repurposed to create a musical theater experience. With the success of Mamma Mia! came an influx of other jukebox musicals like Queen’s We Will Rock You, Green Day’s American Idiot, and Elvis’ All Shook Up. Wikimedia.Commons
So pervasive is all things ABBA in gay culture that they inspired a professor to teach an entire course about its influence. At the University of Alberta in 2015 Prof. John Eason introduced a course entitled “Mamma Mia (Queer) I Go Again!” It centered on understanding ABBA from a cultural and sociological standpoint. “ABBA is really gay culture in ...
Stellan Skarsgard really made the role of Bill Anderson his own. In the stage production, Bill is a carefree Australian, but in the film Bill is a Swedish sailor and travel writer. Skarsgard himself, a native of Sweden, just like ABBA, shows respect for his homeland by flying a Swedish flag on Bill’s boat. Wikimedia.Commons
Mamma Mia!is an English musical featuring the music of a Swedish band, that was shot in Greece and has an Italian title. Defying borders and melding cultures, can’t get much more multicultural than that. It even has an Irishman in it! Mamma Mia, 2008, Relativity Media
Phyllida Lloyd directed two versions of Mamma Mia!Not only did she direct the film with Meryl Streep, she also directed the original Broadway play. She must be a really big ABBA fan to get that involved in it. Wikimedia.Commons
If the plot of Mamma Mia! seems familiar, that’s probably because it is. The main storyline has been used before in the 1968 film Buona Sera, Mrs. Campbell starring Gina Lollobrigida. In that film, the main character is an Italian woman uncertain of which American that she had dalliances with could have impregnated her. She requests each of the thr...
For the film, Meryl Streep performed all her own songs. When it came time for recording one of the tracks she had to fly to Stockholm, Sweden. “The Winner Takes It All” was successfully recorded by Streep in one take. Benny Andersson, the member of ABBA who had composed the track, called Streep “a miracle” for being able to finish so quickly. Mamma...
The cast of Mamma Mia!consists of some pretty talented people—Meryl Streep, Amanda Seyfried, Julie Walters, Christine Baranski, Colin Firth—and not only can they act, they can sing. The cast all performed their own singing for the film. Mamma Mia, 2008, Relativity Media
Meryl Streep first saw Mamma Mia!on Broadway with her daughter and her friends in October 2001. She was so delighted with how uplifting it was that she sent an email to the producers where she praised their ability to brighten the lives of New Yorkers after the devastation of 9/11.

Though Amanda Seyfried eventually snagged the role of Sophie, it wasn’t without stiff competition. She was up for the role against Mandy Moore, Amanda Bynes, Rachel McAdams, and Emmy Rossum. Personally, I don’t see anyone else being able to play Streep’s daughter with the same lighthearted sweetness. Mamma Mia, 2008, Relativity Media
