Dust off the leisure suits! Shine up those platform shoes! Be transported back to a simpler time when gas was under $1.00 per gallon … when music was fun, inspiring, and uplifting … and disco was King! With the resurgence of the ‘70s, fueled in part by the hugely popular 1999 Broadway musical production “MAMMA MIA!” and the 2008 movie of the same name, the music of ABBA is finding its way back into the hearts of those who lived it then and taking over the hearts of those who are experiencing it for the first time now.
Since they started in 2002, ABBACADABRA has been entertaining audiences with the music the world has been loving since ABBA won the Eurovision Song Contest in 1974. Producer Gary Raffanelli got the idea in an entertainment meeting and bluffed that it was already in production. From that start, the group has performed in Europe, the Caribbean, Mexico, Guatemala, coast to coast in the USA with more tours planned in Canada and India.
ABBACADABRA promises to continue the momentum of the Broadway show and hit movie by performing 20 of the group’s greatest hits in full ABBA flair. “Mamma Mia!”, “S.O.S.”, “Super Trooper”, and “Dancing Queen” are re-created with such precision you’ll swear you were listening to the originals themselves. “Take a Chance on Me” and “Waterloo” will lift the audience out of their seats to dance! The show is authentic in music and dress and is performed to live music that will leave you excited and melancholy … at the same time.
