Producer Judy Craymer has announced a relaxed performance of MAMMA MIA! at London’s Novello Theatre on 8 March.

The performance, which will begin at 6.30pm, will be staged in consultation with Mousetrap Theatre Projects (MTP). Relaxed performances are designed to provide an opportunity for people with autism, learning difficulties or other sensory and communication needs who require a more relaxed environment.

Craymer said: “I am very proud that MAMMA MIA! has always been a musical for everyone. I was overwhelmed by the wonderful audience response we had to the previous relaxed performances held in 2013 and 2016 and we are delighted to stage another this March. Theatre has always been and must continue to be inclusive for all. MAMMA MIA!’s heart-warming story has great appeal, the cast and everyone involved in MAMMA MIA! is very much looking forward to this special performance.”

The London cast is led by Mazz Murray as Donna, Josie Benson as Tanya, Gemma Goggin as Rosie, Norman Bowman as Sam, Christopher Dickins as Harry, Stephen Beckett as Bill, Meg Hateley as Sophie, Miles Henderson as Sky, Natasha Heyward as Ali, Olivia Lallo as Lisa, Lucca Chadwick-Patel as Eddie and Jake Bailey as Pepper, with Jennifer Adab playing Donna at certain performances.
