The Luncheon will be directly followed by a matinee performance of the High School’s Musical, Mary Poppins, at the Middle School Auditorium.
“It is so cool playing the role,” said high school senior Manda Borden, who plays Mary Poppins. “I have always wanted to play such an iconic role such as this. It’s challenging as well because it is so associated with Julie Andrews’ portrayal in the movie. I am trying to put my own spin on it while also keeping the classic parts of the role.”
While the Broadway version of Mary Poppins retains many elements of the movie version, there are also differences as audiences will see. However, many of the tunes are the same such as Tuppence, Let’s Go Fly A Kite and Step In Time.
