Wilton, CT Wilton High School Theatre completes this year’s theatre season with the Disney classic, Mary
Poppins. The stage production, based on the books by P.L Travers and the 1964 Disney movie musical is a
favorite for all ages. With new music from the writing duo George Stiles and Anthony Drewe and book written
by Julian Fellows (Downton Abbey) the story of the magical nanny comes to life with many of the Sherman
brothers’ familiar songs including Jolly Holiday, Feed the Birds, Step in Time, A Spoonful of Sugar, Let’s Go Fly a
Kite and Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious.
With over 75 WHS students in the cast, crew and orchestra pit, WHS theatre has spent the last three months
creating the tale of the troubled Banks family at 17 Cherry Tree Lane that is visited by the enigmatic Mary
Poppins who ultimately teaches the family the lifelong lessons of gratitude, acceptance and joy. For the first
time, Wilton High School is also working with ZFX Flying, the company responsible for the flying effects in the
original Broadway production to add the extraordinary element of flight to this production. The production of
Mary Poppins is generously sponsored by Wilton based company ASML.
