“Something magical is blowing into Cherry Tree Lane." When the Banks family places an advertisement for a nanny, their call is answered by Mary Poppins, a woman who is “practically perfect in every way." The magic of this beloved Walt Disney musical blows into WCT for an unforgettable experience for the whole family.
"A spectacle for the family, with heart." - Chicago Tribune
This production is “practically perfect in every way” just like Mary Poppins herself! I can’t wait to direct this show, and I can’t wait bring my kids to see it! The production has all of your favourite songs and characters from the movie, and is loaded with fantastic theatre magic (and even a character or two flying through the air!) This is going to be a spectacular production not to be missed. I bet everyone in Kamloops is going to be singing “Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious” this December! - Daryl
