New York, Part Five--"Mary Poppins"


The third Broadway show we saw was "Mary Poppins." It was a good show, but not what I was expecting. Of course, I was expecting something more along the lines of the movie. Boy, was I wrong. This show is all new. Well, some of the well known songs are the same ("A Spoonful of Sugar", "Chim Chim Cheree", etc.), but they have added a lot of new music. And they switched up the play a bit by re-ordering events and adding new characters and taking old characters out. It was a very well done play, but I'll admit that it was probably my least favorite of the trip. But if you have the chance to see it, don't let my review stop you. Instead, go see it and let me know what you think.
