"All the stars in the sky are shining for you,Anything can happen if you let it..." sings the title character of the musical. The magical character of Mary Poppins, the unforgettable nanny of children's literature, was created by the Australian-born English journalist, actress, dancer and journalist Pamela Lyndon Travers. She wrote the episodes for decades, turning them into novels and even a series of novels, and was still working on them at the age of 90. In 1964 a film was made, and in 2004 a stage musical based on Travers' stories and the film. The script was written by Julian Fellowes, the music by Richard M. Sherman and George Stiles, and the lyrics by Robert B. Sherman and Anthony Drewe. Since then, it has become an unstoppable, award-winning hit on stages around the world, to the delight of adults and children alike. The secret of its success is the inimitable charm with which the musical combines the everyday life of the world around it with the magic of fairy tales...
The production is presented by Music Theatre International Europe and
Theatrum Mundi Theatre and Literature Agency.
Madách Theater
There is still an “era” in the Madách Theater. The era of the rise and success of musical theater. The change began in 1983 with Cats, whose decades-long series of success provided a solid foundation for the next defining step: the legendary 2003 performance of The Phantom of the Opera. Both performances were directed by Tamás Szirtes, who was elected director of the Madách Theater in 2004. Under his direction, the Madách Theater embarked on a path that has resulted in a successful musical theater of outstanding quality. World-famous musicals line up in his program, which are usually in large blocks, so-called they are staged according to the en suite playing order, and each performance remains on the show for years. The basic aim of the theater is to give the viewer the same experience even after 10 years as at the premiere.
