Description

“Mary Poppins,” will be presented three times by the Theatre Program at Woodlands Academy of the Sacred Heart.

Travers' 1934 book, which Walt Disney adapted into the 1964 movie classic starring Julie Andrews and Dick Van Dyke. It’s the story of a magical English nanny, who is blown by the East wind to a London couple’s household to care for their children. Disney Theatrical later produced a stage musical also called “Mary Poppins” in London's West End theatre. The stage production was transferred to Broadway in 2006, where it ran for seven years. Tickets for Woodlands Academy’s production, which are $12 at the door, can be purchased for $10 in advance at the school’s front desk.
