Photo EXCLUSIVE: Sir Paul McCartney Visits MARY POPPINS

Sir Paul McCartney, along with his wife, Nancy, and daughter, Beatrice, attended a Broadway matinee performance of Mary Poppins on Saturday, February 18.  Following the curtain call, the family was escorted on stage, where McCartney graciously met with cast members and took several pictures.  

While talking with child actors backstage, Sir Paul McCartney told them that he asked his family what Broadway play they wanted to see, and they immediately exclaimed, “MARY POPPINS!"  McCartney and his family were very complimentary of the production.

Now in its sixth year, MARY POPPINS continues to entertain audiences at the New Amsterdam Theatre in New York City.  Tickets and more information can be found on www.marypoppins.com.
