THERE is a treat in store for Abba fans later in the year.
The moment when the Swedish group won the Eurovision Song Contest in 1974 is celebrated in Super Troupers, an immersive exhibition at London's Southbank Centre, says The Guardian.
Producer Paul Denton commented: “It will be a different take on Abba we hope. In 1974 Britain economically was not doing that well … what was it about Abba that actually caught the imagination of the public?
“If you look at pop music across the decade, the huge shifts in musical tastes and the emergence of punk – if you look at the charts, Abba were a mainstay in the album and singles charts and there is something about that which is worth celebrating, and we will show what it was about them which captured hearts and minds.”
Abba: Super Troupers is at the Southbank Centre from December 14 to April 29 2018.
