According to a newly created Facebook event, Brown’s student theatre group The Lion Sing will be performing the 1846 musical “Jolly Good Day!” instead of Mamma Mia. “I just keep expecting to see Mamma Mia someday,” sighed senior Joe Prancer, whose only wish is to hear someone belt out ABBA songs on a desolate Greek island as they search for their true birth father. “I hope they do it next semester before I graduate. I keep checking what musicals are being performed and they’re all somehow set in Victorian London. I mean, how many times do we have to sit through a chimney sweeper falling in love with a butcher?” At press time, not a single audience member was able to keep up with the old-timey dialogue and forced British accent.
