Yes, Benny Andersson and Bjorn Ulvaeus both have brief cameos in the film version of Mamma Mia. Andersson appears as the piano player on the dock during "Dancing Queen". Ulvaeus appears in a toga at the end of the film during "Waterloo". Andersson also plays keyboards on the soundtrack, including for Amanda Seyfried's solo of "Thank You For the Music" over the end credits. Three other original ABBA session musicians (guitarist Lesse Wellander, bassist Rutger Gunnarsson, and drummer Per Lindvall) also play on the sountrack. Of course Andersson and Ulveaus are producers and composers for both the film and the stage play.
All of the songs in "Mamma Mia" were created by ABBA. It was ABBA's greatest hits that created the inspiration for the "Mamma Mia" story.
"Mamma Mia" was based on ABBA's biggest hit songs and were combined to create a story. So the theme for Mamma Mia would be the ABBA songs.
