The Abba Show on Tour
The legend of Abba, the four-member vocal group who rode a Eurovision victory to worldwide pop mega-stardom in the 1970s and ‘80s, looms large over 20th-century music. Known for their sparkling, maximally produced music and their commanding combination of upbeat melodies with melancholy lyrics, Abba dominated the world's pop consciousness from their 1974 victory at the Eurovision Song Contest through their last official performance in 1982.
Abba's live shows were as ambitious and intricately crafted as their music. They showcased the four members' sterling harmonies and eye-popping outfits — although these shows were few and far between, given their towering legacy.
ABBAsolutely fABBAulous brings you The Abba Show and picks up where Abba left off in the early ‘80s, giving fans a spirited run through the band's catalog while also showcasing their intimate knowledge of the group's idiosyncrasies. The four members of this Australia-based tribute band — Hannah Pocock, Cameron Charters, Brent McMullen, and Jenna Ball — fully inhabit the roles of Agnetha Fältskog, Björn Ulvaeus, Benny Andersson, and Anni-Frid Lyngstad, with meticulous preparation that includes studying each member's individual mannerisms and showy dance moves.
Backed by a live band and illuminated by a massive light show, ABBAsolutely fABBAulous plays two and a half hours of Abba hits, keeping the energy levels up until the last note. And audiences all around the world have been thrilled by their concerts.
Boasting a back catalog including the Eurovision-winning historical love song "Waterloo," the swooning "Knowing Me, Knowing You," the gloriously weary "Mamma Mia!," and the 20th-century pop classic "Dancing Queen," Abba carved out a legend that is still revered by pop fans of all ages, decades after their formation. For fans who never got to see their tours in person, or even for fans who saw Abba in their prime, The Abba Show honors the Swedish quartet's legacy while bringing it further into the 21st century.
