Jersey Boys does include some vulgar language and adult situations, so please use your best judgement if bringing children under 12 or 13.

Mamma Mia! Tickets and Mamma Mia Review for Minneapolis




The Mamma Mia! Broadway musical tour was in Minneapolis in March and I went with my oldest sister and my Mom. Bobbie and I bought the Mamma Mia! tickets for ourselves and our Mom as her Christmas gift. When the much anticipated day arrived, we met at my Mom's place in downtown Minneapolis for a glass of vino before heading out to a fun dinner at Palomino's restaurant. After eating, drinking, and being merry, we walked across the street to see Mamma Mia! at the Orpheum Theatre.

I absolutely LOVED the movie version of Mamma Mia! and was a little nervous that I wouldn't like the stage version as much, since sometimes there are a lot of differences on the stage because of the limitations that don't a apply to a movie set. However, I was NOT disappointed! The music was a blast, the set simple and yet completely worked and the actors were magnificent; both witty in their humor as well as wonderful singers! I laughed, I teared up a little, and I laughed some more!

The funniest scene was when the bachelor party was starting, and the groom's friends were going to be taking him away. The men came out with wet suits on and neon flippers and masks/snorkeling gear and did a hilarious dance. The actors were just a riot, hamming it up and not afraid to look like fools. I would love to watch that scene over and over again!

I definitely give Mamma Mia! two thumbs up, five stars, my stamp of approval...I think you get the point, if you ever get the chance to see Mamma Mia! scoop up the opportunity!

Check out the inventory that Ticket King has for Mamma Mia! to find a Mamma Mia Tour nearest you!

Money Money Money lyrics

I work all night, I work all day, to pay the bills I have to pay
Ain't it sad
And still there never seems to be a single penny left for me
That's too bad
In my dreams I have a plan
If I got me a wealthy man
I wouldn't have to work at all, I'd fool around and have a ball

Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world

A man like that is hard to find but I can't get him off my mind
Ain't it sad
And if he happens to be free I bet he wouldn't fancy me
That's too bad
So I must leave, I'll have to go
To Las Vegas or Monaco
And win a fortune in a game, my life will never be the same

Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world

Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world

It's a rich man's world
