The largest musical produced by the LHS choir department in school history, Mary Poppins is the story of the Banks family who reside on Cherry Tree Lane. Things are not going well for the family, the children, Jane and Michael, are out of control and are in need of a new nanny. Jane and Michael have their own ideas about what sort of caretaker they should have, while their parents—and in particular Mr. Banks—are insistent on someone strict for the job. When a mysterious young woman named Mary Poppins appears at their doorstep, the family finds that she’s the answer to their prayers, but in the most peculiar way. Mary Poppins (and her many friends) takes the children on many magical and memorable adventures, including dancing with statues, flying over rooftops, and dancing among the stars, but Jane and Michael aren’t the only ones she has a profound effect upon. Even grown-ups can learn a lesson or two from the nanny who advises that “anything can happen if you let it!”

Produced each spring by the choir department, LHS is well-known for its outstanding musical productions. Located in the beautiful Hocking Hills, the school's theater hosts 1,000 seats and state-of-the-art theater technology. Previous high school musical productions include Cinderella, Footloose, Into the Woods, Shrek: The Musical, and Freaky Friday. This year, the department is especially excited to include sixth, seventh, and eighth graders as a part of the musical for the first time in recent history!
