But for singer Tamsin Stewart, the Swedish star’s hits never go out of fashion as she tours the country in ABBA Mania.

The show’s drawing in ‘super-friendly’ audiences at the Grand Theatre for its summer season run, and she’s loving creating memories through the band’s huge catalogue of hits.

“Dancing Queen is a great one for me, my mum and my gran, it was our song and still is - we’ll dance around to it.

“With the films, the music has gone round to new generations; children don’t remember it through the band but they have access to the songs through the films.”

And she’s already passing the love on to a new generation, with her own three- and six-year-old daughters already ABBA fans.

“They come to see the show and dance in the aisles. It’s such a huge part of my life, that they have no choice but to love ABBA,” she said. “It’s lovely to see families, from elderly people through to their great-grandchildren, and there’s not many shows which truly appeal to all ages. It’s a real honour to be part of that.”
