WH Logo Okay, admit it. You don't just see the words Mamma Mia, you sing them in your head. Love them or hate them, ABBA is the king of ear bugs! But you know you love it. I know I love it; love, Love, LOVE it. Many a day, "Dancing Queen" plays through my head. I was a child of the 70s, after all.

Mamma Mia

So, yes, I am excited that "Mamma Mia" is making its way to Bass Concert Hall in Austin, Texas. My friends over at Texas Performing Arts and Lexus Broadway in Austin are bringing this "can't stop singing along" musical to town.Mamma Mia Fox TheaterI saw the show years ago. I was actually pregnant with my 11  year-old Sonny-Bunny then and despite my growing belly and the even larger belly of my very pregnant best friend who went with me, we were standing at the end singing every word. I must say that I am excited to see the show again without a baby belly. (We also had a hilarious run in with an elderly woman on the elevator who mistook our bellies for oversized purses. She yelled at us to move our purses to make room but that's for another day. Remind me to tell you.)I will absolutely be there next Tuesday the 20th and I hope you will be, too. It is fun and bright and silly. It is ABBA and that is good.Warning -- I cannot be held responsible for the words "Waterloo" and "SOS' and "gimme gimme" coming in and out of your vernacular following the show. Just know that I will be right there with you.
