About the performance:

When Mary Poppins, the perfect nanny, arrives at 17 Cherry Tree Lane to care for the Banks children their eyes are opened to a series of magical adventures and lessons. Based on the stories  of P. L. Travers and the classic Disney movie. Enjoy all of the famous songs, like: "Spoonful of Sugar," "Let's Go Fly a Kite," and the infectious "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious." It's full of catchy lyrics and toe-tapping entertainment. This particular performance is a production of Disney and Cameron Mckintosh.

Our lunch begins at noon at the Springside Inn, 6141 West Lake Road in Auburn, 13021. The Merry-Go-Round Playhouse is located at 6877 East Lake Road in Auburn, 13021.
