  • Abba's :Album' Makes Listening Fun
    Abba's :Album' Makes Listening Fun By Bernie Russell Start with Jackson Browne and Paul Simon and begin moving in the other direction; past the Eagles, past Fleetwood Mac, past the Bee Gees, and past Barry Manilow and you finally end up with Abba. Abba's music is as different from Browne's and Simon's as possible with its sumptious background arrangements, infectious melodies, triv­ ial lyrics, and perky delivery. Abba does not pretend to be innovative or even artistic in their music; their aim is purely, blatantly commercial success. In spite of this less than noble goal, Abba's music is terrific. Anyone who has heard their hits ''Mamma Mia'' and "Dancing Queen" knows that Abba's music has a contagiously happy sound that is all but irresistable. Abba's latest, simply called ''The Album,'' carries on their tradition elf light, escapist music and it is entertaining in the way an amusement park is entertaining. There's very little intellectual going on-certain­ ly nothing revolutionary-but the mood is so happy and energetic that it is impossible not to enjoy yourself. Every song on ''The Album'' has a melody so catchy that it lingers in the mind long after the record is over. The lyrics that go with these melodies are, as usual, very slight; such as "There gotta be rock'n rolVTo fill the hole in your soul.'' Much of the music.on "The Album" sounds like Fifties music that has been slicked up and transplanted into the Seventies. "Take a Chance on Me" has a beat like a polka that is occasionally interrupted by one of the singer's cooing "C'mon, gimme a break, baby" the way .

  • ARRIVAL in SYDNEY - Grant's Review
    ARRIVAL IN SYDNEY - Grant's Review ARRIVAL - Simply Sensational Sensational. That’s the only word I can think of to describe the two ARRIVAL shows held in Sydney over the weekend. I am feeling quite lost for words and out of it today. A bit like feeling jet lagged. ARRIVAL are ABBA fans that much is obvious. The attention to detail, the respect, the song choices, the costumes everything is just so right and spot on. And no f##king cat dresses!!!!! As much as I loved the cat dresses way back when ABBA wore them, they have now become the symbol of cheap, tacky ABBA send-ups. ARRIVAL's 1977 tour costumes were just perfect and looked so real. The mini musical? I am lost for words. The narrator, the wigs, the choreography all perfect. Even at the best of times I really can’t get into “Thank You For The Music” but Anna (Agnetha) put in such an amazing vocal performance, I really sat up and took notice a more German cabaret type of vocal. Vicky’s (Frida) emotional rendition of “I Wonder” gave me goose bumps and a weird feeling inside. You often forget what an amazing song “I Wonder” is because the studio version is so flat and devoid of emotion. And “Marionette” really rocked. One of my favourite ABBA songs. :-) Singing in Swedish was a great touch. “Ring Ring (Bara Du Slog En Signal)” never sounded better. “Fernando” took on a new dimension hearing the first verse and chorus sung in Swedish as Frida's original version had been.

There's an abundance of resources available on line celebrating the wholesome Swedes. Ian Cole runs an extremely detailed and extensive fan site at the ABBA Omnibus, here. There's also the official ABBA web site here, where it's even possible to buy a copy of the ABBA version of the game of Monopoly. The Official International ABBA fan club is based in the Netherlands and available online here. There's also the ABBA museum online here (available in English and Swedish). There's also an ABBA timeline available here. The group's wiki is also detailed, with plenty of additional links, here. The result is that it's possible to get lost in ABBA mania for years.

  • CDT Mamma Mia!
    Jessica Fredrickson Act One Near the beach of a beautiful, small Greek island, a young woman, Sophie, mails three envelopes; one to Sam Carmichael, one to Bill Austin and one to Harry Bright. (“I Have a Dream”). Suddenly, two of Sophie’s old friends, Ali and Lisa, appear. They are there for a very special occasion: Sophie is getting married tomorrow! But even Sky, Sophie’s fiancé, doesn’t know the secret she now reveals to her friends: After reading her mom’s old diary, Sophie has learned that years ago, Sophie’s mother, Donna, knew three men, and one of them is Sophie’s father (“Honey, Honey”). It is these three men that Sophie has invited to her special day. It’s her dream to have her father give her away at her wedding. Just as Sophie is plotting with her friends, her mother, Donna, is reminiscing with her old pals, Rosie and Tanya, who have also come to the island for Sophie’s wedding. Donna, Rosie and Tanya were once the pop singing trio “Donna and the Dynamos.” Donna introduces her friends to Sophie’s fiancé, Sky, along with Pepper and Eddie, who work at Donna’s hotel/bar, the Taverna. Donna laments constantly working to run the Taverna (“Money, Money, Money”). As Donna and the girls exit, Sam, Harry and Bill arrive at the Taverna. They comment that it’s been twenty one years since they were last here, but none of them realize the significance. Sophie meets them and is shocked to see all three before her.

  • Mamma Mia! Character Descriptions by Mike Fidler, Director
    Mamma Mia! Character Descriptions By Mike Fidler, Director The heart of Mamma Mia is the music of ABBA and we intend to present the songbook with maximum production value. In many ways the ambition is to make it feel as much like a pop concert featuring ABBA’s greatest hits as a musical comedy in the traditional sense. For anyone interested in a slightly more rock and roll approach to theater, this is a show to get involved with behind the scenes. It is also an opportunity to have a unique experience on stage. We are intending to cast a large “company” who, alongside the band, will be on stage through much (if not all) of the show. A much larger percentage of the numbers than usual are “production numbers” and our onstage company will serve as backing singers and dancers throughout in a performance style that will sometimes seem closer to American Idol than it will a “normal” musical. Many will never leave the stage. While everyone will sing and dance to some extent, there will be featured dancers who will hardly be required to sing and there will be an ever-present chorus (in the true sense of the word), singing in virtually every number with limited movement. There will also be everything in between. A key component of this chorus will be its reflection of our own society and in this respect we are hoping to attract performers of all shapes, sizes and ages. The uniting factor on stage will be the energy, spirit and delight that is magically contained in the music of ABBA and our ambition will be to package up that joy and deliver it into the audience.
