Hudson Players presents Disney and Cameron McIntosh’s “Mary Poppins, The Broadway Musical” opening February 3 at the Barlow Community Center. Based on the classic Walt Disney movie, and expanded to include additional episodes from P.L. Travers’ Mary Poppins books, the show is a “Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious” delight for the entire family. *The performance dates are*: February 3, 4, 10, 11, 12, 17, 18, 19, 24 & 25. Curtain time is 8:00 p.m., with Sunday February 12 & February 19 being 2:00 pm matinees. The February 12th performance will be interpreted with American Sign Language specialists.

It opens with Bert, a jack-of-all trades, introducing the audience to England in 1910 and the troubled Banks family. Young Jane and Michael have sent many a nanny packing before Mary Poppins arrives on their doorstep. Using a combination of magic and common sense, she must teach the family how to value each other again. Mary Poppins takes the children on many magical and memorable adventures. However, the children aren’t the only ones she has a profound effect upon. Even Mr. and Mrs. Banks learn a lesson or two from the nanny who advises that “Anything can happen if you let it.” Bringing this irresistible story to life is a production team that includes director Claudia Lillibridge, of Twinsburg, musical director Ron Jones, of Stow, assistant musical director Bridget Jankowski, of Cuyahoga Falls, and choreographer Connie Fleming, of Stow. All were also involved with *1776* that played to sell-out crowds last year for Hudson Players. The unforgettable songs include “Feed the Birds,” (Walt Disney’s all-time favorite song), “Spoonful of Sugar,” “Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious>," “Step in Time,” “Let’s Go Fly a Kite,” “Chim Chim Cher-ee” and several outstanding new songs including ”Being Mrs. Banks” and “Practically Perfect.” The cast features more than 30 local actors, including Ellie Kelly, of Mayfield Heights, as Mary Poppins, Bradley Hills, of Kent, as Bert, Mark Moore, of Seven Hill as Mr. Banks, and Jessica DeFrange, of Streetsboro, as Mrs. Banks.
