About the event
Step into a world where magic dances hand in hand with reality in the company of Mary Poppins, portrayed by the incomparable Julie Andrews. From her celestial descent, she sprinkles joy, wonder, and just a hint of mischief upon the Banks family, revealing the enchantment hidden within everyday life. But as old adversaries resurface and challenges loom, Mary must summon the boundless power of imagination to protect those dear to her heart. Join Mary Poppins as she soars once more, weaving an unforgettable tapestry of adventure, camaraderie, and the indomitable spirit of humanity. When Jane and Michael Banks, played by Karen Dotrice and Matthew Garber, encounter the unconventional Mary Poppins, they embark on a journey of fantastical escapades alongside her Cockney companion, Bert, portrayed by the charismatic Dick Van Dyke. Together, they endeavor to infuse their buttoned-up parents, brought to life by David Tomlinson and Glynis Johns, with the same magic that defines their beloved nanny, in a tale that will warm hearts and ignite imaginations alike.
