Here are some of the costuming details for Mary Poppins. In most cases, costumes can be pulled together from items you have at home or that you can borrow from friends and family. You may need to purchase a few items (Savers and DI are great for this!). In some cases, we will be purchasing some coordinating items to use in addition to what you put together at home. Many performers are in several scenes and may need different costumes. Please try to ask around for pieces so you don’t spend a lot! We appreciate your kids and are grateful for their hard work. We try to get each child on stage 3 times during our shows and in this show that may mean a costume change. Thank you for your help in this.
Steph has created a pinterest board that may be helpful to some as you are putting together costumes. (You can find it here: https://www.pinterest.com/ajstrasser8/mary-poppins-jr-costumes/ ).
If you do not find details for your costume here Stephanie will be contacting you separately with information.
