Dancing Queens

My mom and I attended the opening night of Mamma Mia at the Alamo. I was so excited about this, it was a sold out show. We live in a city known for weirdness, so I pulled out my boas and crowns and picked my mom up. I was expecting a lively crowd, full of women and gay men. (that was what the audience was like for Sex and the City). I think that my mom and I were representing the weird. I had more people ask me if we were apart of a bachelorette party. Hello ladies...ABBA, dancing queen!! I have seen the musical twice and have the feeling most of the audience had not seen the Broadway production. Some people raved about it, it was a fun campy movie. The movie did have its flaws...it not merely that Pierce Brosnan cannot sing; it is that he looks so uncomfortable doing it. You couldn't help but cringe. He still looks good in a suit, but with his shirt off ...nasty. Back hair, chest hair, oh my!! I happen to prefer the hairless variety.
