ABBA stars take a chance on new Mamma Mia-themed venture
21 January 2016All four former members of the 1970s Swedish pop group ABBA have reunited for the opening of a new business venture in the capital Stockholm.
The dining-entertainment venue, based on the Greek taverna featured in the ABBA-themed film Mamma Mia!, is the idea of ABBA star Bjorn Ulvaeus.
He was joined for the opening night by Benny Andersson, Anni-Frid Lyngstad, and Agnetha Faltskog. They were last seen in public together in 2008, news website thelocal.se said.
Fans and guests paid 1,340 kronor (£110; $157) for a ticket to the opening night of Mamma Mia! The Party at the Tyrol restaurant in Grona Lund, Stockholm, on Wednesday, it added.
The venue's website says punters will enjoy a Mediterranean-style buffet while the show takes place.
"Everything happens on a magical evening in several acts filled with singing and dancing, daredevil stunts, Greek Gods, flirty waiters, and perhaps a zorba and an ouzo or two," it says.
"No evening is like any other and no-one knows how it ends. It all depends on where Abba's songs take us."
