OVERVIEW
MARY POPPINS LANDS IN LOS ANGELES!
“It’s a lavish stage version that’s a wonder to behold, yet at its heart, Mary Poppins is a family drama. That this human and humane story shines through the dazzling special effects demonstrates the potency of its emotional impact.”
- Mike Kuchwara,
Associated Press
Broadway’s supercalifragilistic, award-winning hit Mary Poppins comes to the Ahmanson Theatre for an exclusive limited engagement beginning November 2009.
Based on P.L. Travers’ cherished stories and the classic 1964 Walt Disney film, Mary Poppins features the Academy Award®-winning music and lyrics of Richard M. Sherman and Robert B. Sherman. The stage production 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. Olivier Award-winning Richard Eyre directs with co-direction and choreography by Tony® and Olivier Award winner Matthew Bourne.
"Film musicals don’t normally translate well into stage versions, but Mary Poppins doesn’t simply translate – it transcends."
- Clive Barnes,
NY Post
