Baranski Will Be a "Dancing Queen" in Mamma Mia! Film
By Andrew Gans
and John Nathan
Tony Award winner Christine Baranski, who was back on the New York stage earlier this season in Regrets Only, will join the the film version of the international hit musical Mamma Mia!
Baranski will play the role of Tanya in the motion picture, which is being directed by Phyllida Lloyd, who will be making her feature-film debut. Lloyd helmed both the London and Broadway mountings of the long-running musical.
London's Daily Mail also recently reported that three songs from the stage show have been dropped: "Thank You For the Music," "Under Attack" and "Knowing Me, Knowing You." The movie, however, introduces another ABBA song to book and screenplay writer Catherine Johnson's storyline, "When All Is Said and Done."
