They are all alive and doing very well. In fact ABBA still sells almost 3 million albums a year due to the success of "Mamma Mia" which is base on ABBA's songs.
The original stage musical of Mamma Mia! premiered in London on April 6, 1999. Today there are 13 current productions of the show, and it has been performed in eleven different languages. It recently passed The Producers to become the 18th-longest running show in History on Broadway. Currently it holds the distinction of being the longest running musical in both Las Vegas and Moscow.
The movie version of "Mamma Mia" which will be in the theaters this July, stars Meryl Streep, Pierce Brosnan, Amanda Seyfried and Colin Firth.
