What's Happening - Mary Poppins at Zach
"A spoonful of sugar makes the medicine go down..." Are you singing along yet? I know a chorus of "medicine go down, medicine go down" immediately rings through my head. The music from Mary Poppins has stayed in my heart and mind since childhood. So I am excited to hear it again live at Zach Theatre's production of "Mary Poppins" opening at Zach Theatre's on July 20th.
Mary Poppins is flying into the Zach
Austin locals, Jill Blackwood and Matthew Redden will bring this practically perfect nanny, and her best pal, Bert, to life.
ZACH Theatre’s Producing Artistic Director, Dave Steakley, directs this new production of a family classic with musical direction by Allen Robertson, and choreography by Robin Lewis. Joining Blackwood and Redden is a cast filled with Zach Theatre favorites: Jennifer Young Mahlstedt, Tyler Jones, Nicholas Kier, Ryan Smith, Michelle Alexander, Tim Blackwood, Scarlet Craig, Anderson Zoll, and Hunter Regian (who also served as Assistant Director/Choreographer).I will be attending this week. I am counting the days!
