"The moment I met Stefanie when she flew to London to meet me, I knew she was practically perfect in every way." 
                                                                                                    - Sir Cameron Mackintosh

After a year-long, nation-wide search, Cameron Mackintosh and Disney are thrilled to announce Stefanie Jones as the magical Nanny who is 'practically perfect in every way' for the upcoming Australian production of Mary Poppins. 

​

Stefanie will be stepping in time to join the ranks of other legendary performers who have worn Mary's sensible shoes, such as Dame Julie Andrews, Verity Hunt-Ballard, Ashley Brown and Zizi Strallen. The acclaimed award-winning new production of Mary Poppins flies over the rooftops to the Sydney Lyric Theatre from 15th May 2022.

​

The creative team have enhanced this new production making it more thrilling and even more spectacular than ever. The scenic design is even more magical than first time around and it has reopened to a rapturous response from critics and audiences in London.

​

The responsibility of bringing this complex Mary - equally stern and playful, strict and loving - to life on stage now falls to Jones in this triumphant theatrical experience with dazzling choreography, incredible effects, and unforgettable songs. Jones can't wait to pop open Mary's iconic umbrella for the first time as one of history's most beloved characters, the Nanny who has captured the hearts and imaginations of generations of people around the globe.
