Her carpet bag is packed, her umbrella is unfurled, and come the fall, MARY POPPINS takes up residence at Broadway’s magnificent New Amsterdam Theatre.

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. 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.

Olivier® 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. Co-direction and choreography is by Olivier® Award winner Matthew Bourne, set and costume design is by Tony Award® winner Bob Crowley, co-choreography is by Olivier® Award winner Stephen Mear, and lighting design is by Olivier® Award winner Howard Harrison.

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, like the London critics, you’ll have just one word for it: “Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!”
