Mamma mia..here we go again....
At a concert!
This time we went to see Mama Mia at the Winter Garden Theatre on 50th Street Broadway!
Oh, I must mention the streets in New York too! They are all labelled as streets, avenues or drives! There was certainly no thinking involved when they were thinking up names for streets were there!
And i'd have to say 5th Avenue (Tiffany's!) and 42nd Street (love the name!) were my favs! :-)
Broadway starts at Trump Tower (amazing buildings these are!) in Central Park (which is beautiful - so elegant! NY parks have tables and chairs in them!) and goes right down to Wall Street which is downtown lower Manhattan near Brooklyn Bridge!)
Mama Mia, was a fabulous concert. As usual, the last concert we've seen,is the best!
But like i said before, how can we reallly compare each country's concerts with any other.They all have their own magic!
It was based on ABBS's songs..produced by Benny and Bjorn from Abba. The way they weaved thesongs into the story of a mother who had a daughter that was getting married and had invited her 3 'suspected' unknown fathers"along was quite wonderful! So funny! It was a tragic comedy...
I did wonder if the character, "Bill" was American in the Australian production, abecausein the American production he was Australian!
After we watched the show, we went to our place of addiction, Starbucks for coffee and sandwich (Red Lobster was booked out Cazza so it must be good!) we had to go back to our hotel o ntheSubway and air shuttle..and after we negotiaged 'nicely' the aiport shuttle service then took us back free!
Such a rigmarole to come and go from Manhatten, from Queens, where we"re staying that"s for sure! (Takes a hour and a half to get in...whch is why we stay in from morning to night!)
Off to Washington DC tomorrow...nighties!
