Louise Pitre, star of Mamma Mia!, knows she's made it on Broadway — she's having a caricature hung up at Sardi's. The world-famous show biz eatery adds Pitre's mug to their walls Feb. 1 at 5:30 PM. A Dora Mavor Moore Award (Toronto's Tony) winner for Mamma Mia!, Piaf and Blood Brothers, Pitre's 20 years of theatrical credits include musical theatre stints with Les Miserables, Jacques Brel Is Alive and Well and Living in Paris, I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Change, The Roar of the Greasepaint, The Smell of the Crowd and Cabaret. She recently released a solo album, "All My Life Has Led to This."
Mamma Mia! collects a couple dozen hit songs by ABBA and shapes them around the story of a single mother (Pitre) and her young daughter's marriage on a Greek isle. While the daughter plans her future with the love of her life, she and her mother are haunted by three different men who may or may not be her daughter's father.
