So Mamma Mia it is!!!

[divaofdisney]

A big surprise for me but way excited!!!

[reney313]

Yep...I am surprised, I didn't have Mamma Mia on my radar, but I do recall a few people guessing that!

[Schplinky]

Fits really well with the RCL brand and target demographic.

[divaofdisney]

I have never seen it so I am very excited and I do love the music from it. :D

[hawks026]

I for one am thrilled! I wouldn't have minded Jersey Boys, but I've seen Mama Mia and love Abba so I'm happy with it.

[Baded]

If you saw the movie, don't worry the play is 100 % better!:D

[DonnaK]

I would have bet everything that it was going to be Wicked, but I'm very pleased with Mamma Mia. Fun, upbeat, good music.

Here is the email we just received Royal Caribbean International To Feature MAMMA MIA! On Quantum of the

[Elizanessie]

Can't wait to see it....loved the film, love the music...happy, together, fun, romance, well known ,easy to follow storyline, singalong, colourful...excellent choice Royal Caribbean. :D:D

[Schplinky]

Mamma Mia will work out well for the Music Hall, too. They said the Music Hall was a place for the party to move to after the show in the theater. Having seen Mamma Mia a number of times, I can guarantee that you will NEED to dance after seeing it.

So excited that Mamma Mia was chosen.

[smeck]

Is it to early to hope for wicked on the Anthem?

[debache]

RCI will never make everybody happy with their choice of musical...this time it is me, I absolutely hate ABBA, it is funny, I told my husband please anything except Mama Mia :eek:..oh well, I will survive and I am sure the masses with be thrilled...still cannot wait until January, 2015..

[Guest maddycat]

I'm happy with the choice. I saw Mamma Mia on Broadway when it first opened and loved it. It's a great upbeat fun musical.

Mamma Mia is a great Broadway Musical and I think a great addition to the Broadway musical lineup onboard Royal Caribbean ships.

 

I would have bet everything that it was going to be Wicked, but I'm very pleased with Mamma Mia. Fun, upbeat, good music.

 

I too thought it would be Wicked. The clues were all there NYC, Kristin Chenoweth, a "green" ship. But maybe we can hope Wicked for Anthem, or Quantum 3 or 4?

Could be. I think just like with Indy though, Anthem is being targeted as the UKs ship. Anyone know what plays are popular in London right now? "Viva Forever" got high marks and then killed by critics. I'm still hoping for Emma Bunton to be Anthem's godmother.

[Overtyme]

Ditto!

 

I totally agree. This show does not bring the 'wow' for me.

I would love to see them pull off War Horse or Les Miserables or Evita or Guys and Dolls.

[CRUISEFAN0001]

I would have thought they'd have something more current on Quantum.

 

ABBA? Yuck.

[Lloyd555]

I guess Grease is out of the question?

Abba = disposable bubblegum pop music at it's worst. Suitable for an audience who stopped paying

attention to music as their hair greyed.

[UNV-IT!!!]

Highly disappointed.

Watching Sting on the Tonight Show right now and he was talking about The Last Ship again. When it was first announced I couldn't help but think that it would be perfect for onboard Anthem of the Seas. Anyone know how it's doing in England? A play about the end of the great ship building industry in Ireland, what better play could you pick for a British ship?
