are two productions of MARY POPPINS playing domestically.  The Broadway
production opened at the New Amsterdam Theatre
on November 16, 2006 and has been seen by over 2.4 million theatergoers
and the North American tour began its acclaimed run in March 2009.  In
addition, MARY POPPINS can also be seen at the Circus Theatre in
Scheveningen, Holland, outside of Amsterdam, and
in Melbourne, Australia at Her Majesty’s Theatre.  For tickets and more
