The Board of Directors and Artistic Director, David Leidholdt, are pleased to announce Millbrook's next production of Mary Poppins at the Ryan Main Stage.

"It's a Jolly Holiday with Mary!" Mary Poppins, the beloved classic musical has finally arrived at Millbrook Playhouse with a heartwarming score, spoonfuls of imagination, and a flying nanny!

Mary Poppins has flown into No. 17 Cherry Tree lane to visit George, Winifred, Jane and Michael Banks. Through her teachings we learn that medicine is easy to take with a spoonful of sugar, find that silver lining in any situation, and that even when the winds change just go with it and fly a kite. Along with her many life lessons, she brings the children and the audience on many wonderful magical adventures with her favorite old side kick Bert.

This practically perfect musical offers singing, dancing, and joy for the whole family.
