Mamma Mia the Party

A delightful start to the day with a sunny breakfast on Ally and Cat’s balcony, overlooking the River Thames. Then we met Gosia and Mitchell for coffee at the Wetherspoons opposite the Mamma Mia the Party experience at the O2. 
How to describe Mamma Mia The Party? Well it was absolutely amazing, and felt very joyful. It was also very professional; despite the fairly large number of guests, the staff were very efficient and attentive, and our meal was served timeously. It was a Greek meal of course, very tasty, and the restaurant was just like the restaurant in the film Mamma Mia, so the whole afternoon really did have a Greek feel. The event was centred round a musical comedy which took place all around the “taverna” which had a fountain in the centre and steps leading up to a bar area; a British waiter has fallen in love with the daughter of the owner of the Taverna, love and drama ensues. All of the actor / singers were fantastic with great voices and of course all of the songs were Abba! There were lots of wee Abba jokes in the script but I won’t mention them because I wouldn’t want to spoil it for others. The whole event was great fun. Four hours later we emerged blinking into the sunshine in the Wetherspoons beer garden, where we had a couple of pints with Mitchell, Gosia and their friends Sean and Kirsty. Then we went back to Ally and Cat’s where Cat rustled up a very delicious salad which we ate out on the balcony. Great day.
