Mary Poppins: Disney's Family Favourite Will Return to the West End
Hold onto your umbrellas; Mary Poppins will be back in town! The magical tale of the world's favourite nanny is spectacularly brought to life on stage with the awe-inspiring choreography from Sir Matthew Bourne, extra-special effects and singalong scores written by Richard M Sherman and Robert B Sherman. It's practically perfect in every way.
Celebrate the Revival of Mary Poppins at the Prince Edward Theatre
It is great to see the stage production of Mary Poppins fly back to these shores following a hugely successful sell-out worldwide tour. The production, which is meticulously adapted from the original movie and the book authored by PL Travers, is the brainchild of Cameron Mackintosh and Downton Abbey's creator, Julian Fellowes. The Mary Poppins musical features a host of classic songs that will bring back childhood memories and put smiles on younger faces experiencing it for the very first time. From Step in Time and Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious through to Feed the Birds and Practically Perfect, these familiar tunes will have you dancing and clapping in the aisles!?
Who's Starring in the New Mary Poppins London Cast?
You'll be pleased to hear that Zizi Strallen has returned to the show as Mary herself. Strallen is also joined on the cast by Charlie Stemp as Bert. Strallen is best-known in the West End for her role as Fran in Strictly Ballroom The Musical. Strallen has also appeared in other big-name West End productions, namely Cinderella, Follies and Matthew Bourne's The Car Man. Meanwhile, Stemp shot to stardom in his award-winning portrayal of Arthur Kipps in Half a Sixpence. Other well-known cast members include Petula Clark, who plays The Bird Woman and leads the unmistakable Feed the Birds score. Joseph Millson is one of the latest recruits to the Mary Poppins cast, appearing as Mr Banks, the killjoy father of Michael and Jane Banks.

"Nobody does magical entertainment like Disney - except Cameron Mackintosh. The two have teamed up for the musical Mary Poppins, which won't be going anywhere for a long time. It is a roof-raising, toe-tapping, high-flying extravaganza" - New York D
