Everyone’s favourite nanny is coming to Bristol this year as much-loved musical Mary Poppins returns to the Bristol Hippodrome. It'll be the first time Mary Poppins has visited the city in nine years, with an almost month-long tour at the Hippodrome in November.
The show will run from Monday, November 4 until Saturday, November 30, as part of the UK tour of the show. Acclaimed theatre producer Cameron Mackintosh is working with Disney on the production, which is coming "direct from the West End".
Based on the stories of P.L. Travers and the Walt Disney film, the story of the world’s favourite nanny arriving on Cherry Tree Lane promises to be “even more magical than ever before featuring dazzling choreography, incredible effects and unforgettable songs”.

Acclaimed Australian stars Stefanie Jones and Jack Chambers reprise their roles as Mary Poppins and Bert, having both received critical acclaim for their performances in the recent Australian production.
Producer and co-creator Cameron Mackintosh said: “It is amazingly already 20 years since Mary Poppins first landed onto the stage at the Bristol Hippodrome and started spreading Pamela Travers' magical stories around the great cities of the world.
“Mary has soared triumphantly around the globe and our recent Australian production discovered two of the most delightful Mary and Berts ever - Stefanie Jones and Jack Chambers - whom I'm thrilled to be bringing to the United Kingdom and Ireland to star in this spectacular new National tour.
“They are heading a wonderful cast and I'm sure you will find this the most magical production of Mary Poppins ever, practically perfect in every way!”
