ABBA fans will be able to dance their way into the festive season this year when Dancing Queen: A Tribute to ABBA performs at the Thames Civic Centre on November 5 as part of a nationwide tour.
Direct from Australia, the well-travelled show returns for its first NZ performances since 2020 and will stop at a mammoth 33 venues in 46 days.
The show brings new cast member Brit Jess Driver – in the role of Agnetha – to perform alongside Australian Zac Coombs as Bjorn and South Africans Giselle Bouwer as Anni-Frid and André Behnke as Benny.
Producers Showtime Australia used the forced “downtime” during the Covid-19 pandemic to revamp production on the show so even repeat attendees will find the show fresh and fun.
“Abba is famous for having those catchy classic tunes that never get old so it’s a hard show to get sick of,” vocalist Bouwer said.
The show promises more than two hours of Abba’s biggest hits each night, all performed live on stage by a hand-picked 8-piece international cast, with world-class production and visuals to accompany. Tracks such as Mamma Mia, Dancing Queen, Waterloo, Knowing Me Knowing You, Money Money Money, SOS, Fernando, The Winner Takes It All and Thank You for the Music have all made the set list and are bound to turn each event into a joyous singalong.
