Smaller crowd on Sunday night means more stage time for you!

Karaoke is always a good time at Mama Mia, but on Thursday nights, and Wednesdays, too, you have to be prepared to wait a while between songs. That's why I prefer to go on Tuesday nights, and now on Sundays, when the smaller crowd means more stage time for each individual singer.

Last Sunday, we arrived just as animadora Gaby Ramirez took the stage for her opening number, and a handful of us got to sing three songs each before the request slips started coming in from other tables. The house was still rockin' when we left at 1:30, and we'll go back on Sunday again.

Another benefit to smaller crowds: less of that horrible second-hand smoke in the air!
