The jack-of-all trades, Bert, introduces us to England in 1910 and the troubled Banks family. Young Jane and Michael have sent many a nanny packing before Mary Poppins arrives on their doorstep. Using a combination of magic and common sense, she must teach the family members how to value each other again. Mary Poppins takes the children on many magical and memorable adventures, but Jane and Michael aren't the only ones upon whom she has a profound effect. Even grown-ups can learn a lesson or two from the nanny who advises that "Anything can happen if you let it."

"Not only are we rising to the technical challenges of Mary Poppins, this entire production will be infused with American Sign Language. From the choreography to the dialogue, we are going to make theatre more inclusive and accessible right here in Sheboygan by presenting this timeless classic in a way that is respectful to the language and the Deaf culture, not just because we think it looks "pretty". We are truly in the spirit of Mary Poppins herself, bringing magic and opening a world of possibilities to our audiences in both the hearing and Deaf Community."
