STAGE REVIEW: Thank You For The Music - at the Forum Theatre, Malvern, Thursday, June 14, 2018.
AS ABBA tribute bands go this is up there with the best.
Over the past three decades or so there have been many spin-offs of the Swedish super-group’s legacy
This is a smash-hit tribute show which brings all of the group’s number one successes to the stage in a production like no other. There are moments when it could be the real thing…
It’s a hugely popular show which combines the unmistakable harmonies, colourful costumes, and dazzling performances by an all-star cast, no wonder the audience lapped it up and had them thanking ABBA for the music again and again!
Record-breaking movies, smash-hit West End musicals, chart-topping albums and singles – ABBA’s incredible place in music history now lives on in such concerts - although rumours of a reunion by the original four continue to gain some credence.
But the for the moment, if you can’t have the real thing, then this is a more than passable reminder of just how good Anni-Frid, Benny, Bjorn and Agnetha actually were.
