The Croswell Opera House’s recent production of the musical “Mamma Mia” broke all previous box office records to become the most-attended show in the Croswell’s history.
A total of 6,583 tickets were issued for the show, which closed July 1st. The previous record, which stood for 21 years, was held by “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat,” which drew 6,060 guests in November 1997.
Jere Righter, the Croswell’s artistic director, said “About half of our guests who came to this show were new to the Croswell, and many of them were completely new to our community.” In addition, 60 percent of ticket buyers came from outside of Lenawee County.
The Croswell was built in 1866, and has been producing live theater since 1968.
