New Zealanders will be able to dance their way into the festive season this year when Dancing Queen: A Tribute to ABBA tours from November 4 to December 19.

Direct from Australia, the well-travelled show returns for its first New Zealand performances since 2020 and will stop at a mammoth 33 venues in 46 days.

The show brings new cast member Brit Jess Driver - in the role of “Agnetha” – to perform alongside Australian Zac Coombs as Bjorn and South Africans Giselle Bouwer as Anni-Frid and André Behnke as Benny.

Producers, Showtime Australia, used the forced “downtime” during the recent pandemic to revamp production on the show so even repeat attendees will find the show fresh and fun.

“Abba is famous for having those catchy classic tunes that never get old so it’s a hard show to get sick of!” said vocalist Bouwer.
