Mary Poppins

Mary Poppins at Drury Lane Theatre Oakbrook Terrace

Why see Mary Poppins?

See The Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious Disney Musical

Pride of the Chicagoland theater scene, the Drury Lane theaters have been the chosen Broadway touring venue and influential champion of local productions for over six decades. Named after the historic Theatre Royal Drury Lane, the theaters have made their own history since opening in the late 50s with over 2,000 productions passing through their proscenium arches and season programming packed to the rafters with exciting new shows. Featuring a host of Tony Award Broadway blockbusters, their latest 2019/20 season continues with the high spirited musical spectacular Mary Poppins, directed by Broadway theatermaker Marcia Milgrom Dodge. 

A collaboration between Disney and musical theater icon Cameron Mackintosh, the production first premiered on the West End in 2004, earning two Olivier Awards before making its Tony-winning Broadway bow in 2006. Marrying the Sherman brothers' music of the original Julie Andrew's-lead feature film with additional new songs, a kaleidoscopic set design and dazzling choreography, the tale of the titular magical nanny kicks off when the rebellious Banks children run away from home (although they were merely chasing a kite). Their exasperated father puts out an ad for a new, much more strict nanny than their last, but through a series of whimsical circumstances they're visited by Poppins, an umbrella-toting child carer with a few tricks up her sleeve to help heal a family in distress.

Amazing Mary Poppins Show

Absolutely incredible performance , we went to party of 10 and absolutely everyone adults and kids loved it . Main actors are definitely Broadway level , especially Mary Poppins,Bert, Ms.Andrews, Maid, MsandMr.Banks, Jane and Michael. kids were amazing dances were amazing , we leave very far away and it takes us 2 hours to drive to Redondo Beach and we make sure to go to each Encore production . Voices are astounding, the musical is long but everyone from 4-year-old to 69-year-olds were watching it in one breath , kids did not even want to go to the restroom because they were afraid to miss a minute . Thank you so much for your hard work everyone worked so hard to make our experience outstanding ! ... Read more
