(SOMERSET, NJ) -- One of the most popular Disney movies of all time is on stage in Somerset. There are two weekends left to catch Mary Poppins at Villagers Theatre. Performances run Friday through Sunday now through November 22, 2025. The production is directed by Jack Tomy.
Based on the books by P.L. Travers and the classic Walt Disney film, Cameron Mackintosh and Disney’s Mary Poppins delighted Broadway audiences for over 2,500 performances and received nominations for nine Olivier and seven Tony Awards, including Best Musical.
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.”
Performances are Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30pm; Sundays at 2:00pm. There is no matinee on Sunday, November 23rd but there is a 2:00pm matinee on Saturday, November 22nd. Tickets are available for purchase online. Villagers Theatre is located at 515 DeMott Lane in Somerset, New Jersey.
