Mary Poppins, Jr.

Meadow Pond Elementary School fifth grade Drama Club will present Mary Poppins, Jr. on January 24 at 5:30 pm and 7:00 pm at the Meadow Pond Elementary School Cafetorium. General admission seating is $10.00. Tickets are available here.

The snow date is January 31. 

The play involves the entire fifth grade.

The stage was packed with nearly thirty students—enough for two ensembles of the play. The remainder of the grade would work backstage beginning the following week. Kate Belders, the parent director and set designer, was leading the actors through a curtain call. Students that have speaking parts in one production may be in the ensemble in the other production, and other students are involved backstage, explained Amanda Dickerson, the parent stage manager and production coordinator.  

Barbara Milone, the school’s social worker and theatre club advisor—and Morgan’s mom—handed umbrellas to the two students playing Mary Poppins. They popped them opened and smiled, looking ... supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
