Mary Poppins is coming to town!

The Penn Theater Department is staging the story of the charismatic nanny tonight, March 4th, 2016 in the Penn CPA!

The performance begins at 7 p.m. and it is sure to be a night filled with fun for the whole family.

The director, a Penn teacher Mrs. Black, says, “the technical aspect is like nothing we have experienced before.  There’s really great magic in it and of course the biggest thing is the flying, which happens multiple times throughout the show both in act I and act II.”

The cast has rehearsed every weekday in January & February from 3:30-6:00 to bring Penn High School this musical.

This play follows the tale of Mary Poppins, a nanny who must take care of two troublesome children named Jane and Michael Banks who belong to the strict Mr. Banks and his wife Winifred. The children learn many valuable lessons while on their adventures with Mary and her chimney-sweeping friend, Bert.

Following the opening night, there will also be performances on Saturday the 5th at 7 p.m. and Sunday the 6th at 3:00 p.m.

Here is PNN reporter, Brandon King, with a story on the show.
