The cast of Mary Poppins fly into Plymouth

4th March 2025

The cast of the spectacular production Mary Poppins delighted onlookers last week as they gathered on Plymouth Hoe for a breathtaking photocall to celebrate the beginning of their highly anticipated run at Theatre Royal Plymouth.

Against the stunning backdrop of Smeaton’s Tower and the sweeping views of the coastline, Stefanie Jones (Mary Poppins), Jack Chambers (Bert) and Patti Boulaye (Bird Woman) brought a touch of magic to the city, celebrating the arrival of everyone’s favourite, practically perfect, nanny.

This dazzling stage adaptation of Mary Poppins, produced by Disney Theatrical Group and Cameron Mackintosh, has already won the hearts of audiences worldwide with its unforgettable songs, spectacular choreography, and spellbinding performances. Now, Plymouth audiences have the chance to experience the magic live on TRP’s stage until Saturday 29 March.

Theatre Royal Plymouth’s Chief Executive and Executive Producer, James Mackenzie-Blackman, said: “We are absolutely thrilled to welcome the wonderful cast of Mary Poppins to Plymouth. Seeing them on The Hoe was a wonderful preview of the excitement and spectacle that awaits audiences at Theatre Royal Plymouth. This is a truly unmissable show for all ages.”

Based on the stories of P.L. Travers and The Walt Disney film, the story of the World’s favourite nanny arriving on Cherry Tree Lane is more magical than ever before featuring dazzling choreography, incredible effects and unforgettable songs. The timeless score includes the classic Sherman Brothers songs; ‘Jolly Holiday’, ‘Step in Time’, ‘Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious’ and ‘Feed the Birds’ with new songs and additional music and lyrics by the Olivier award-winning British team of George Stiles and Anthony Drewe.
