GET TO KNOW THE ROBE RECIPIENTS

Here We Go Again! Erica Mansfield Dons Her Third Robe for the 'Mamma Mia!' Revival

"If you would have told 18-year-old me who arrived to New York with two suitcases and living in a women's residence, looking up where to go in Backstage magazine, that I was going to have one Broadway show, I wouldn't have believed you, much less a whole career on Broadway... I'm here to tell you 35 Broadway debuts: you can do anything!"

Erica Mansfield poses onstage in the Robe, one leg set forward and one arm up. The house seats are visible behind her.
