The Australian production of Mary Poppins will move to Sydney mid next year.

It is understood the show will open at the Capitol Theatre on Friday, May 6.

The show is currently playing in Melbourne where it has proven to be an enormous success. Most performances are sold out and reviews of the production have been stellar.

Brilliantly adapted from the beloved books by Australia`s own P.L.Travers and the classic 1964 Walt Disney film, Mary Poppins will play at the Capitol for a limited season.

Mary Poppins has captured the hearts of millions since premiering on the West End and Broadway, and now Australians can experience the unforgettable songs, stunning choreography and unsurpassed stagecraft of this extraordinary theatrical event.

In her review of the production for AussieTheatre.com, Anne-Marie Peard said, in part: “Bring every child you know to Mary Poppins because they deserve to see something this gorgeous – and bring all the grown ups you know because they deserve to feel like a child again.”
