“Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again,” the follow-up to the hit 2008 movie, opens in theaters this week. Producer Judy Craymer conceived the idea of a musical based on ABBA songs, and produced the original stage production as well as both “Mamma Mia!” movies.

Craymer ( @Judy_Craymer) joins Here & Now‘s Robin Young to talk about her continuing love of ABBA.
