For those of you Musical fans out there, and fans of the wonderful Mary Poppins movie, you will soon have a chance to see it on Broadway coming this November.

Currently, the partically perfect Mary Poppins is playing in London, but she's picking up her parasol and heading far over the ocean to land in Disney's newly refurbished New Amsterdam Theatre in New York City, where The Lion King is currently playing. If you're wondering about the quality of this show, you needn't fear. This one is a smash it over in England, and it'll be even more welcome over here. Here's a few images and even a clip to a video that was taken from BBC Television when the cast of Mary Poppins were doing a televised fundraiser for Children's funds. Tickets went on sale for the show, today at 9:00 AM

The last picture was a picture taken on March 17th, 2005, with Gavin Lee as Bert, Laura Michelle Kelly as Mary Poppins, and the wonderful Dame Julie Andrews, when Julie attended the performance for a charity event for Children.

Here's a video of "Practically Perfect"

Following that performance was the extremely great and newly choreographed "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious"

When Mary Poppins comes to New York City, Gavin Lee will come along with it to reprise his role as Bert. Ashley Brown will play Mary Poppins. Currently, she's on Broadway with Disney's Beauty and the Beast as the role of Belle.

Which is why you should DEFINETELY try getting tickets now, while it's early, for New York.

I know that within the next week or so, my mum and I are going to buy our tickets. I'm VERY excited.

I REALLY hope you can get tickets for the show.

Nice videos, thanks for the pointer. Just in case, to let you know, they were not taken on the actual stage, but in a TV studio as part of a telethon. :wave:

Please don't wait that long unless you only want horrible seats. It's already virtually sold out into next spring.

Well, there are still some "decent" seats left. But almost everything I would consider a good seat is GONE. Most good seats were swiped up during the Visa presale, or during the first day or two of sales to the general public.

Aim for a weeknight performance for your best chances.

Having seen the show in London as well -- I wanted to pipe in on the ticketing - the seats in the first few rows, and the far sides are the worst in the house - don't get them. The entire show is designed in forced perspective, and you will miss all of the lighting effects in the front, and not get the proper dimensions from the sides. The balcony, though, is a great place for the show - the entire production is drawn in broad strokes of light and set, and you will not miss anything.
