Mary Poppins Synopsis &
Storyline
Based on P.L. Travers' cherished stories and the classic 1964 Walt
Disney film, Mary Poppins - currently one of London's biggest
sensations - features the Sherman brothers' original Academy
Award-winning songs, and Oliver Award-winning director Richard Eyre
leads a dream team of vision and stagecraft, bringing to life the
story of the Banks family and their magical nanny.
Mary Poppins marks the first collaboration between Disney,
producer of the acclaimed The Lion King, Beauty and the
Beast, and Tarzan®, and Cameron Mackintosh, legendary
producer of the record-breaking The Phantom of the Opera,
Cats and Les Miserables. The result is a new musical so
extraordinarily enchanting that you'll have just one word for it:
"Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!"
