The world's most famous nanny flies into Claudelands Events Centre for a strictly limited season, thanks to the Hamilton Operatic Society.
The Banks family who live on Cherry Lane, London, are having a dreadful time.
The children, Jane and Michael, are out of control and need a new nanny. Jane and Michael have their own ideas about what sort of caretaker they should have, while their parents — and in particular Mr Banks — are insistent on someone strict for the job.
When the mysterious Mary Poppins appears at their doorstep, the family find that she's the answer to their prayers.
Mary Poppins takes the children on magical and memorable adventures, but Jane and Michael aren't the only ones she has a profound effect upon.
Even grown-ups can learn a lesson or two from the nanny who advises that "anything can happen if you let it".
The show is directed by David Sidwell, and choreographed by Sonja McGirr-Garrett, musically directed by Timothy Carpenter.
There are performances on November 25, 26, 29, 30, Dec 1, 2 (two shows), 3, 6, 7, 8, and 9 (two shows).
