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 captures hearts in a whole new way: as a practically perfect Broadway Junior musical! New Albany Middle School has been rehearsing and preparing for this show since January. Mary Poppins Jr. consists of 54 cast members and 16 crew members grades 6-8. Featuring projections by Nick Eberts and lighting design by Jon Gillie, an entire team of dedicated parents created the scenery, props and costumes led by Director Gould. New Albany Middle School will present Mary Poppins, Jr. to be performed April 29 - May 1 at the Jeanne B. McCoy Community Center for the Arts. Purchase tickets: https://bit.ly/3vbXMDz
