The success story of Mamma Mia! goes on forever and on 9 November 2003 Björn attended the premiere of the Dutch version of the musical.

I had no tickets, so I could not see the show, but I can tell you a bit about the admosphere. And this is the place where you find a couple of pictures taken inside and outside the Beatrix theatre in Utrecht.

Björn arrived at the theatre at 14.15 hours. He was extremely relaxed and signed lots of items for the fans. He opened the rebuilt theatre and an exhibition in the theatre at 15.00 hours. It was quite crowded so I could not really take pictures.

Later when all the Dutch celebrities arrived, Björn arrived for the second time at 16.30 hours. This time with Lena and kids (if I recall that correctly). Again he took lots of time for autographs. I did manage to get my Arrival digipack autographed, but again taking pictures proved very difficult. Later I could see him in the foyer of the theatre and took some blurry pictures through the window.

Oh yes, I managed to get the official press kit, and a (much too small) t-shirt. The press kit is nice, nothing extremely fancy, but lots of info about the cast and the show.

Hover over the thumbnail pictures if you want to see the normal-sized pictures.

You might see that my pictures of Björn are not exactly great shots. But thanks to Annette Kluwie from Germany and Falyngulsson and Bé Annen from The Netherlands, I can show you a couple of much better pictures of Björn.
