originally published: 10/30/2023

(COLLINGSWOOD, NJ) -- MANIA: The ABBA Tribute visits the Garden State this week with shows at Count Basie Center for the Arts in Red Bank on Wednesday, November 1, 2023 at 8:00pm and at The Scottish Rite Auditorium in Collingswood on Friday, November 3, 2023 at 8:00pm. From London's West End to Las Vegas, MANIA the ABBA tribute (Formerly ABBA MANIA) remains the world's No. 1 touring ABBA tribute show. Formed in 1999, this production has sold out theaters and concert halls across the globe, with over 3,000 live concerts in over 30 countries, bringing the music of the beloved Swedish supergroup to 3 million people.

In an exhilarating, two-hour recreation of one of ABBA’s most memorable concerts, MANIA brings to life the flamboyance of the ‘70s. This includes all of the uplifting, dance-inducing, and sometimes heart-breaking songs from the iconic Swedish band, with fantastic costumes, staging, lighting, and effects.

MANIA recently toured the United States for the 10th time with an impressive 37-date national tour, selling over 50,000 tickets and visiting 18 states. For lifelong ABBA fans, as well as new generations who never had the opportunity to see the band live, MANIA provides the perfect excuse to party, relive memories and simply feel entertained with the best music ever. So dig out those platforms, dust down those flares, and enjoy all your favorite hits, including “Mamma Mia,” “Voulez Vous,” “Dancing Queen,” “Winner Takes It All,” “Waterloo,” “Fernando,” “Super Trouper” and many more.

Playing the roles of ABBA’s famous band members, the talented cast members in the touring United States production include: Alison Ward (Agnetha), Hana Keala Freeman (Frida), James Allen (Bjorn), and Jeff Pike (Benny).  The show is supported by their super-talented and loyal live band: Wayne Viar – Drums (MD), Chris Blackwell – Lead guitar, and Dexter Whitaker – Bass guitar.

Tickets for the November 1st show at Count Basie Center for the Arts (99 Monmouth Street in Red Bank) show are available for purchase here. Tickets for the November 3rd show at the Scottish Rite Auditorium (in Collingswood) are available for purchase here.
