Join your fellow Sunny Isles Beach residents for the Opening Night of Mary Poppins at the Broward Center for the Performing Arts on Wednesday, June 9th, 2010 with the City shuttle bus service departing City Hall at 6:30pm.

The hit Broadway musical was the most successful new touring theatrical event in 2009. During the past year the production has generated over $52 million at the box office and welcomed more than 762,000 theatergoers in eight cities, making it the best-selling and most attended new touring Broadway show in 2009. 
 
Produced by Thomas Schumacher of Disney Theatrical Productions and Cameron Mackintosh, Mary Poppins features original UK Tour star Caroline Sheen in the title role and original London and Broadway star Gavin Lee as Bert, reprising their roles as the world's most famous nanny and chimney sweep. Memorable show tunes include “Let’s Go Fly A Kite,” “Chim Chim Cheree,” “A Spoonful of Sugar,” and none other than “Supercalifragilisticeexpialidocious.”

The opening night seats are in the Upper Mezzanine Rows C and D. The price for residents is $62.00 and $67.00 for non-residents and includes round trip transportation from the Sunny Isles Beach Government Center.
