I’m so excited The Rose Theater is showing Mary Poppins – The Broadway Musical through June 28! I remember watching the 1964 classic Mary Poppins with Julie Andrews & Dick Van Dyke many times as a child. I would sing ‘Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious’, ‘Spoonful of Sugar’ and ‘Let’s Go Fly a Kite’ for weeks after watching it on TV.
If you are nostalgic about Mary Poppins too, The Rose’s production will not disappoint. This is a lively show with lots of fun and colorful dance scenes, beautiful music and a great story line about the importance of family.
I took my 9-year old daughter and she loved it. Her favorite parts were when Mary Poppins flew over the stage and when the chimney sweep, Bert, walked on the ceiling! There were lots of ‘oohs’ and ‘aahs’ in the audience from the amazed kids watching these neat aerial stunts. My daughter was also amazed with the live orchestra that accompanied this classic musical performance. Personally, I absolutely loved the dance scene during the performance of ‘Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious’. The costumes were very colorful and they used umbrellas during the dance to spell out that long word. It was really fun to watch.
Mary Poppins is a great family show and a perfect way to introduce your children to Broadway and musicals. Be warned, you will be singing the catchy tunes in your head for weeks after seeing it.
Mary Poppins is best for families with children ages 5 and up. The show is two hours with an intermission. If you go make sure to bring a few extra bucks to purchase chocolate chip cookies and drinks during intermission or some fun toys or Mary Poppins the book or DVD for sale in the lobby.
