The Greek island of Skiathos, known for its stunning landscapes and Mamma Mia film locations, has long been a favourite destination for travellers seeking an idyllic Mediterranean getaway.
Now, with the ITV theatre competition, I Have a Dream, Greek islands including Skiathos are set to become even more of an irresistible paradise for those in search of a unique holiday experience, according to Greek luxury specialist tour operator, Planet Holidays.
Hosted by radio and TV personality Zoe Ball, I Have a Dream is a glimpse into the world of musical theatre, celebrating the talent and entertainment of aspiring performers vying for the coveted roles of Sophie and Sky in the iconic musical, Mamma Mia!
Zoe Ball is joined by a panel of judges, including comedian and TV personality Alan Carr, singer-songwriter Jessie Ware, Olivier Award-winner Amber Riley, and Samantha Barks, a star of Frozen in London’s West End, who provide insight, guidance, and mentorship.
The competition is set against the backdrop of the Greek islands, with the contestants judged and mentored by industry professionals through workshops, masterclasses, and live performances. The stakes are high as the contestants strive to claim the roles made famous by Amanda Seyfried and Dominic Cooper in the feel-good musical.
The grand finale will take place live at a West End theatre in London, where the two talented winners will emerge triumphant, securing the roles of Sophie and Sky in Mamma Mia! and given the chance to perform in the 25th anniversary production at the Novello Theatre.
