Playhouse 395 Announces Spring Musical
Playhouse 395 is pleased to announce that they will be bringing the beloved musical Mamma Mia! to
the Bishop stage this spring. A star-studded cast, lead by Maryanne Schat as Donna Sheridan and Abby
Stoiber as her daughter Sophie, has been hard at work since the beginning of January learning lines and
songs and dances that will transport audiences to the fictional Greek island of Kalokairi.
Mamma Mia!, first performed in London in 1999, is the magical creation of an enduring story written by
British playwright Catherine Johnson, based on the songs of Swedish pop/dance group ABBA. Mamma
Mia! first hit the Broadway stage in 2002 where it played for 14 years. Since its London debut Mamma
Mia! has delighted audiences in more than 50 countries.
Joining Schat and Stoiber on stage is a cast made up of many talented actors, both veteran and new to
Playhouse. Donna’s Dynamos, Tanya and Rosie, will be played by Patricia Cook and Michelle Dossey;
Donna’s ex-lovers and Sophie’s potential Dads, Sam, Bill and Harry, will be played by Chris Connolly,
Layne Durocher and Jesse Steele respectively. Sophie’s fiancé Sky will be played by Shawn Louth while
his two buddies Pepper and Eddie will be played by Kenneth Zadrozney and Samuel Vichrey. Rounding
out the cast are Sophie’s girlfriends, Ali and Lisa, played by Dakota Reynolds and Jeniffer Velaquez, and
the marrying priest by Stan Conger. A large chorus ensemble will be joining in and playing a key
important role in creating the mood and atmosphere of Donna’s Taverna and Greek island life.
Bringing it all together, with vision and style and collectively a world of experience with Director Martha
Reynolds, Music Director Ryan Mills and Choreographer Sabrina Nioche. Jan Hambleton is serving as
the Producer.
