BWW Reviews: What a Jolly Holiday with MARY POPPINS

What better way to inaugurate a theater than to put on a show with the pizazz of Mary Poppins. A name made famous by Walt Disney who based his film off of the written work of P.L. Travers. The Broadway musical is a crowd pleaser for certain with a great deal of help from a cast phenomenally chosen to introduce The Wisconsin Dells to its newest, and extremely worthwhile, attraction - The Palace Theater.
