Based on one of the most popular Disney movies of all time and the Broadway musical that played for over 2,500 performances and received multiple Olivier and Tony Awards nominations, Disney and Cameron Mackintosh's Mary Poppins Jr. is capturing hearts in a whole new way: as a practically perfect Broadway junior musical!
Synopsis
The jack-of-all trades, Bert, introduces us to England in 1910 and the troubled Banks family. Young Jane and Michael have sent many a nanny packing before Mary Poppins arrives on their doorstep. Using a combination of magic and common sense, she must teach the family members how to value each other again.
Mary Poppins takes the children on many magical and memorable adventures, but Jane and Michael aren't the only ones upon whom she has a profound effect. Even grown-ups can learn a lesson or two from the nanny who advises that "anything can happen if you let it."
Original music and lyrics by Richard M. Sherman and Robert B. Sherman. Book by Julian Fellowes. New songs and additional music and lyrics by Anthony Drewe and George Stiles. Co-created by Cameron Mackintosh. Based on the stories of P.L. Travers and the Walt Disney Film. Disney and Cameron Mackintosh's Mary Poppins Jr. is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI).
