Mary Poppins JR

Summer Children’s Theater Camp Porchlight Players will host its 13th Summer Children’s Theater Camp June 10-28, 2019 in Gypsum, a workshop-inspired camp which incorporates theater skills, dance & movement, and public speaking while producing Disney and Cameron Mackintosh’s Mary Poppins JR from MTI’s Broadway, Jr. collection. Based on one of the most popular Disney movies of all time, Disney and Cameron Mackintosh’s Mary Poppins JR. is an enchanting mixture of irresistible story, unforgettable songs and breathtaking dance numbers. 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.” The show will be performed Friday, June 28nd at 6:00 PM at the Lundgren Amphitheater in Gypsum, and it is free!
