ABBA's hits tell the hilarious story of a young woman's search for her birth father. This sunny and funny tale unfolds on a Greek island paradise. On the eve of her wedding, a daughter's quest to discover the identity of her father brings three men from her mother's past back to the island they last visited 20 years ago.

The story-telling magic of ABBA's timeless songs propels this enchanting tale of love, laughter and friendship, creating an unforgettable show. A large cast, non-stop laughs and explosive dance numbers combine to make Mamma Mia! a guaranteed smash hit for any theatre. A mother. A daughter. Three possible dads. And a trip down the aisle you'll never forget!

Run Time: about 2 hours 35 minutes including a 15 minute intermission

Providing access to the Arts is key to creating well-rounded human beings.  Some kids find their place in sports, some in academics, and for others, they find their place of belonging in the Arts.  We strive to create an atmosphere that supports a safe space for all students to feel at home and ready to explore new skills. We aim to help the next generation of adults be well prepared and well adjusted when they step up into their own to go out into the world and do great things. 

The FWHS Drama Department is a set-funded department. We do not receive funding from the district. So ticket sales and other donations are the only way we are able to provide these performance opportunities. Shows are not cheap to produce. The rights to perform a play is around $1200 and a musical costs about $3000. Then the music tracks we need to sing to cost another $2500. Then there are the materials to build the set, buy, rent or make the costumes and props. When all is said and done, the costs of putting on a play is around $8,000 and a musical is around $10,000. The Drama Department produces the Fall play, Drama 2 showcase, Musical Theatre showcase, Student directed one acts, and the spring musical. That's a lot of opportunities for students to showcase their talents. 

If you would like to help the FWHS Drama Department further our mission, we gratefully accept financial donations (see the donations tab) as well as parent support with set building, costume construction, fundraising, decorating for shows, and more. You can email drama teacher Holly Rose with how you would like to help at [email protected] 

Thank you for your support!
