Royal Caribbean International has revealed plans to bring the musical Mamma Mia! to the high seas, aboard its brand new Quantum of the Seas liner.
The Broadway show, which is based on the music of Abba, will debut on the cruise ship when it sails from New York in November 2014.
“The debut of Mamma Mia! aboard Quantum of the Seas continues to raise the bar of what we offer our guests onboard our latest groundbreaking ship,” said Lisa Lutoff-Perlo, Royal Caribbean’s executive vice president of operations.
“Since introducing Hairspray onboard Oasis of the Seas in 2009, our Tony award-winning musical productions have been incredibly well-received by guests, and we are proud to expand our Broadway at sea offerings with our fourth licensed main-stage production – more than any other cruise line.”
More than 54 million people around the world have now seen Mamma Mia! which follows a daughter’s quest to discover the identity of her father, and includes many of Abba’s most famous hits including ‘Dancing Queen’, ‘Money, Money, Money’ and ‘Take a Chance on Me’.
The 16-deck, 4,180-passenger Quantum of the Seas will debut in November 2014, marking the launch of Royal Caribbean’s new Quantum class. It will be followed in April 2015 by the Anthem of the Seas.
