Before you purchase cheap Mary Poppins tickets for your entire family, however, bear in mind that there is one scene where a toy box comes to life that may be intense for very small children. With a run time of nearly three hours, the show might also be difficult for busy children to sit through in its entirety.

What the Critics Say

Many of the critics enjoyed the stage production of Mary Poppins even more than the original movie. Joe Dziemianowicz of the New York Daily News called the show a "roof-raising, toe-tapping, high-flying extravaganza."

However, not every critic was as complimentary, with some referring to the Broadway musical as "muddled," "cluttered" and missing inspiration. This could be due to the fact that the live show attempts to maintain the integrity of the original book a bit more than the movie did, adding the substance of the father's painful past and current troubled marriage to draw adults in search of discount Mary Poppins tickets as well.
