Why see Mary Poppins?

Based on P.I. Travers cherished stories and the classic 1964 Walt Disney film, Mary Poppins features the Sherman brothers original Academy Award-winning songs.

The show has been created, in collaboration with Cameron Mackintosh, by Academy Award-winning screenwriter Julian Fellowes, who has written the book, and the Olivier Award-winning team of George Stiles and Anthony Drewe, who have composed new songs and additional music and lyrics.

Mary Poppins marks the first collaboration between Disney, producer of acclaimed The Lion King and Cameron Mackintosh, legendary producer of the record-breaking The Phantom of the Opera, Cats and Les Miserables. The result is a musical so extraordinarily enchanting that, like the critics, you'll have just one word for it: Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

Amazing Mary Poppins Show

Absolutely incredible performance , we went to party of 10 and absolutely everyone adults and kids loved it . Main actors are definitely Broadway level , especially Mary Poppins,Bert, Ms.Andrews, Maid, MsandMr.Banks, Jane and Michael. kids were amazing dances were amazing , we leave very far away and it takes us 2 hours to drive to Redondo Beach and we make sure to go to each Encore production . Voices are astounding, the musical is long but everyone from 4-year-old to 69-year-olds were watching it in one breath , kids did not even want to go to the restroom because they were afraid to miss a minute . Thank you so much for your hard work everyone worked so hard to make our experience outstanding ! ... Read more
