Mary Poppins

[Floridagram]

I just returned from NYC and saw Mary Poppins on Broadway. It was thoroughly delightful and I recommend it to anyone visiting NYC, even if you have no kids. Our group included a 5,28,32,52 and 63 year old and we all enjoyed it. It is updated some, yet retains the original integrity, and has some surprises. A friend who has seen many plays on Broadway said it is among the best she has seen.

I agree its amazing! My dd's voice teacher called at midnight last night telling us how much she loved it and to be sure we went to see it. She was so excited, she forgot what time it was! i didnt care as i was on the DISboards at that time! The choreography is terrific, so glad this is on Broadway. We had just seen Ashley Brown as Belle in Beauty and the Beast right before she got the role of Mary Poppins.

So glad you liked it! After hearing all the rave reviews, I splurged and got surprise tickets for DD's birthday for June. Orchestra, Row k! Can't wait to see what the "surprises" are!

You will love it, all I can think about is that I want to see it again! We bought the CD but it is the London show, I thought the voices in the American show were better. I hope they release a CD of the American show.
But I enjoy hearing it again and visualizing. If you go to the Disney website there is a clip of the show to get you in the mood.

Our family is going to see it on Saturday. My parents, myself (26), and my two brothers (21 and 19) are psyched to see it. Granted, we're all Disney freaks, so that might have something to do with it. We don't have the best seats, but nevertheless, we're all very excited.

I don't think there are any bad seats, just some are better than others. When you look at the stage are you on the right or left? Are you in the balcony? Enjoy!
