 Mary Poppins advice? Hey guys! I'm thinking of going to see Mary Poppins and I need your opinion- is it as good as people say it is??? I've seen some reviews of Mary Poppins at [url]Broadwaybox.com[/url] which made me want to see it very much! It sounds charming! It seems as though the discounts there are really good, so I can afford it at Christmas time!!
Tell me what you think

I haven't seen it yet, but the Music Director and Choreographer for a production I am in right now went to see it in New York and cannot stop raving about it. They said it was fantastic.
I'd go see it. You can't go wrong with something that's practically perfect.

Go see it! I saw it on the West End and absolutely loved it; I liked that it was closer to the books than the film was, and darker. Plus Step in Time was an absolute show-stopper. I couldn't stop smiling for a week after I saw it.

I worked there for a summer, and it never got annoying.

I saw it 2 weeks ago. I was skeptical at first, but it was amazing. I left with a huge smile on my face. The music was great, the sets were amazing and the special effects were breathtaking. Just an all-around amazing show!

Indeed. I worked there for a summer, and it never got annoying. Even though I had expected to not like the show.

How good IS the show??? I haven't seen it, but it's been my newest obsession since Wicked after I got one song for free from a Best Of Broadway iTunes card. A friend saw it and I heard Bert TAPS AROUND THE WHOLE STAGE WALL!?

Well, he walks up and down the sides of the prosc, but he does tap across the ceiling.

Absolutely see it! I too thought it would be cheesy, but it really wasn't. Everything about it was wonderful, my bf and I had a great time!
