The One With Mary Poppins Junior


This past weekend, I helped out with the 21st annual play at Kennedy. This year, we were piloting Mary Poppins Jr. What a blast!

Now truth be told, it is a fast moving play. Epically fast. So, helping to run stage crew kept us quite busy. But the crew was great. Even though it was a small crew – fortunately some of the 9th graders came back to help – we ran it smoothly. Phew!  But, it was quite an event.

The play itself was fun. It is a version of the Broadway play, with more of the “Saving Mr. Banks” feel to it. The sets were great. The acting and singing was phenomenal. And the dancing was fabulous.

And, I made several memories. First, Bri and Kiff helped out on a play and worked several major parts of it, which was fun. Second, we were able to move in and out on more scenes then we ever have before. Finally, the students in the production gave me a fantastic Mary Poppins tie as a gift and a memory of this year….something I will always treasure.

All and all and fantastic play!
