Mary Poppins description
Mary Poppins – Winner of 7 Tony Awards
You've probably seen the 1964 film, a wonderful British classic whose lovely plot and sweet show tunes appeal to people of every age. If it reminds you of your childhood, this theatre production will bring the past zooming back in the most delightful way. If you're only little and have never experienced Mary yet, you're in for a huge treat. Everyone loves Mary Poppins, and that's why it makes such a lot of sense to grab tickets while they're still available.
Make your way to the Prince Edward theatre, to where Disney and Cameron Mackintosh's acclaimed stage musical of the kids' classic Mary Poppins returns. The show features glorious, rousing music and lyrics by the talented Sherman Brothers, with extra lyrics and tunes from George Stiles and Anthony Drewe. Combining the original children's books by P. L. Travers and the 1964 Disney film, Julian Fellowes' new book merges everything to exceptional effect.
The original 2004 production was directed by Richard Eyre, co-directed by Matthew Bourne and choreographed by Stephen Mear. It proved a smash hit on trials in Bristol and sold out at the Prince Edward theatre. It remains the only Disney musical to premiere in Britain. Laura Michelle Kelly played Mary back then, and won a well-deserved Olivier Award for Best Actress in a Musical for her role in 2005. When it transferred to Broadway in late 2006 it enjoyed nominations for seven Tony Awards including Best Musical, and won the award for Best Scenic Design. This time around the show stars the excellent Zizi Strallen and Charlie Stemp.
A sequel to the original 1964 movie was released in late 2018, 54 years after the original, called Mary Poppins Returns. It has sparked even more interest in the original story, just in time for this long-awaited theatrical revival.
So what's the plot?
It's London, and the year is 1910. The youngsters of the Banks family, Jane and Michael, need a nanny, and they want a cheerful one. When the perfect nanny - Mary Poppins herself – turns up, her unconventional ways turn the family upside down. Ultimately she ends up helping the whole family, not just the kids, and there's a wonderfully warm happy ending. The score includes the all-time classics songs Supercalifragilisticexpialidoc
The Producer for Disney is Thomas Schumacher, joined by Cameron Mackintosh. Richard Eyre directs and Matthew Bourne co-directs. The lighting comes from Howard Harrison, Design from Bob Crowley, and the costumes are by Bob Crowley.
Who is this show for?
This delightful classic musical is suitable for the whole family.

My Wife and I took our daughter to see the show last night with high expectations, which have been met and then some. All 3 of us would go again and will be recommending it to other people. The acting from all of the cast was of a high standard, as was the singing and dancing. Thanks for a great night out.

This is a perfect show for kids and this for families. It’s not a remake of the film set on a stage but it does include all of the classic Mary Poppins movie moments. Some of the clever tricks engaged to show the Poppins magic truly are amazing and child and adult alike will be charmed by this production. Great and lively action from all involved. A lovely evening out.

Such a fabulous presentation of an old and familiar story line with all the singalong tunes to warble along to. Fantastic stage set with some great illusions, I could here the kids in the audience asking lots of how did he do that and how does that happen questions. A feast for the eyes and would highly recommend seeing this amazing show.

Superb entertainment. Hats off to the entire cast, production team and orchestra. Sadly, though, the first half of our 2.30 pm performance was spoiled by a spoilt young girl in our row, about 7-8 yrs old, who talked and complained throughout. The indulgent parents also talked to her out loud rather than whisper, which made it even worse. Everyone kept their temper but thank goodness they left at the interval. Also, some young people in front of us were on their phones checking messages periodically, which was annoying. Typical of the selfishness and incivility you find everywhere nowadays.

If you’re not from the U.K., you’ll find that the speaking is pretty quick at the beginning and it takes a bit of focus to make sure you’re catching all of the words through the dialect, however your brain quickly settles into the groove and you’ll have a blast!

We had seats in the Grand Circle so looked down on the stage and what a view, but it is quite steep and high up, so bear that in mind. Everything about the show was exciting, magical and sparkling! Wonderful production all round. I think my favourite part was the 'Step in Time' routine with the chimney sweeps. Fabulous! Although audience members were asked to switch off their phones, there were a few who didn't think it applied to them!
