Giamatti PLOT Walt Disney, a doting father, promised his daughters that he would bring their favourite fictional nanny, Mary Poppins, to life in the cinema. Little did he know what he was getting into because the author of the book, Pamela Travers, did not like Hollywood and had no intention of letting her most famous creation be manipulated for the marketplace. Years later, when her book sales began to slow, dwindling finances forced her to schedule a meeting with Disney to discuss future movie rights to her beloved story. For two weeks in 1961, a determined Disney did all he possibly could to convince Travers that his film version of Mary Poppins would be wondrous and respectful. In the end, to really convince her, he had to reach back to his early childhood. LANGUAGE Standard American, Australian and British English. GRAMMAR As and Like 1.

The cast has been in rehearsals for almost three months now, and is thrilled to bring the show to stage, and to share it with you. Mary Poppins, despite the popularity of the 1964 movie, is only a relatively recent arrival to stage, having made its stage debut in London in 2004, then opening on Broadway in 2006, where it ran for 2,619 performances over seven years. Featuring the classic music and characters of the movie, it nonetheless reinvented and deepened the story of the Banks family, adding interesting new characters and heartfelt new music. And since no one could imagine Mary Poppins without a little “magic,” it also seems includes some special treats for the audience.
