Blacksburg High School Theatre presents the musical "Mary Poppins Jr." in-person with four performances starting on Friday, May 14, 2021 through Sunday, May 16, 2021 inside the Blacksburg High School Auditorium. Performance Schedule: • Friday, May 14th at 7:00 pm • Saturday, May 15th at 2:00 pm • Saturday, May 15th at 7:00 pm • Sunday, May 16th at 2:00 pm Based on one of the most popular Disney movies of all time and the Broadway musical that played for over 2,500 performances and received multiple Olivier and Tony Awards nominations, Disney and Cameron Mackintosh's Mary Poppins is capturing hearts in a whole new way: as a practically perfect Broadway Junior musical! The jack-of-all trades, Bert, introduces us 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 members how to value each other again. Mary Poppins takes the children on many magical and memorable adventures, but Jane and Michael aren't the only ones upon whom she has a profound effect. Even grown-ups can learn a lesson or two from the nanny who advises that "Anything can happen if you let it". Disney and Cameron Mackintosh's Mary Poppins JR. is an enchanting mixture of irresistible story, unforgettable songs and breathtaking dance numbers. This show is a perfect opportunity to showcase a strong, iconic female performer, as well as unique special effects and illusions. Admission is $8.00 for adults and $5.00 for ages 55 & older and those under 18. To purchase tickets online, visit: https://blacksburgtheatre.ludus.com/index.php or buy them at the door.
