I have not seen "Mamma Mia!" yet. I keep saying I'm going to Atlanta to see it whenever it has been in the Fox Theatre.
I'm going to miss it again!

It's celebrating its sixth season on Broadway, is playing in Las Vegas and on a national tour. The feature film will be released on July 18.
The musical is about a single mother, Donna, who owns a small hotel on a Greek island. Her daughter, Sophie, is about to be married. Among the wedding guests are Donna's two best girlfriends, Rosie and Tanya, her one-time back-up singers.

About Me
- Sandra Okamoto
- I was born in Tokyo, Japan, in the Tokyo Army hospital. My father was in the U.S. Army and stationed in Tokyo where he met my mother. Like many Army "brats," I went to a number of schools before graduating from high school. In my case, I graduated from Columbus High School when we got transferred from Okinawa to Fort Benning my senior year. I then went to Columbus College, which is now Columbus State University. I graduated in 1975 with a degree in political science, and I've been working at the Columbus Ledger-Enquirer since I graduated. I tell people I have the best job in town.
