Timeless Magic: 'Mamma Mia’, a musical delight

Theatre may still be an extracurricular activity at Brookhouse school, meaning the student doesn’t get graded in the activity, but still, the learners as well as the faculty throw themselves with a passion into the performing arts.

That could be easily seen last week at the Karen branch of the school when they staged Mamma Mia! The musical is based on the pop music of the Swedish band, ABBA, which took the world by storm in the mid-70s and early 80s. The group broke up in the 80s, but then their album came out years later, and again, they hit number one on the pop charts for weeks.
