Old Rochester Regional High School Drama Club will light up the ORRHS stage on Mother’s Day weekend May 7 to 10 with “Mamma Mia.” Mr. Brayden Fanti is thrilled to be directing his sixth production with the ORRHS Drama Club and this will be the second ORRDC show for Assistant Director, Vanessa Medeiros. Music is performed by a live orchestra under direction of Pedro Silva & Jenna Champagne and choreography is by Jocelyn Ulloa.
Set on a Greek island, “Mamma Mia!” is a high-energy musical built around the iconic songs of ABBA. The action begins as Sophie (Fiona Roveda) is about to get married but has a mystery to unravel. She doesn’t know the true identity of her father. After secretly reading her mother Donna’s (Amanda Tomasso) old diary, Sophie invites three gentlemen from Donna’s past to the wedding hoping to finally uncover the truth. Is it Bill (Liam Osterday), Sam (Linden White), or Harry (Lucas Cabral)? Chaos, comedy, and heartfelt moments follow as all three arrive, each potentially her dad, without Donna knowing what Sophie has done. The story unfolds with ABBA’s legendary hits like “Dancing Queen,” “Super Trouper,” “Take a Chance on Me,” and more classics turning every twist into a musical celebration. Other key roles include Mara Donnelly as Tanya, Charlotte Cook as Rosie, and Lincoln Fauteux as Sky.
