Oakcrest School's Upper School Production of Mary Poppins

Set in London in 1910, Mary Poppins follows the adventures of a magical nanny who arrives in London to take charge of siblings Jane and Michael. Along with a friendly chimney-sweep named Bert, they experience a whirlwind of musical adventures and learn a thing or two about love and the importance of family along the way. The Oakcrest show will star Addison Duncan ‘24 as Mary Poppins, Connor Flynn (a student at The Heights School) as Bert, and Annie Howard ‘25 and Lorali O’Byrne ‘25 as Jane and Michael Banks, with Oakcrest theatre teacher Dr. Kristin O’Malley directing.
