Schools in the Millcreek and Holladay area are busy with fall shows. Olympus High will present “Mamma Mia!” in October, under the direction of Robin Edwards. “It’s the story of Sophie, a young bride-to-be trying to find herself by looking for a missing face on her family tree,” Edwards said.
The Olympus show is double-cast with six evening performances. Edwards has also scheduled two sing-a-long matinees to appease the ABBA fans. “The music is memorable. From the energetic ‘Mamma Mia’ and ‘Dancing Queen’ to the beautiful ‘Our Last Summer’ and ‘Slipping Through My Fingers,’ everyone will leave with a tune in her head and in his heart,” Edwards said.
Here is a preview of what’s scheduled at local schools.
