Torn Ticket II, the only student-run musical theater group at Tufts University, presents the first of three performances of “Mamma Mia!” ABBA’s hits tell the hilarious story of a young woman’s search for her birth father. This sunny and funny tale unfolds on a Greek island paradise. On the eve of her wedding, a daughter’s quest to discover the identity of her father brings three men from her mother’s past back to the island they last visited 20 years ago. The story-telling magic of ABBA’s timeless songs propels this enchanting tale of love, laughter and friendship, creating an unforgettable show.

Amanda Wilhoit directs a cast of 27 performers; Mich Lewis and Stephanie Rifkin direct a 14-member pit orchestra. Admission is free; reserve a ticket at Tufts Ticketing: https://tuftstickets.universitytickets.com/w/event.aspx?id=3115.
