About this deal

One of Julie Andrews' favorite songs in Mary Poppins was "Stay Awake." When she heard that there were plans to cut it, she wrote a letter of concern to P.L. Travers who instantly insisted that the song remain in the film. Mary Poppins herself was originally written as strict and pompous in the books but Disney made her kind and gentle as well as keen on discipline. Disney is one of the most recognizable companies and brands in the world, with a long, rich history. How do you help not only preserve that history but share it with the world? A song about Admiral Boom was written but didn’t appear in the film. You can hear the music composed for it in the score.

Uncle Albert played by Ed Wynn was originally written in the script as having a Viennese accent. Ed Wynn, however did not attempt the accent. He kept his own while ad-libbing many of the lines and laughing on the ceiling. The horse that Julie Andrews rides upon while on the carousel in the Jolly Holiday scene is still on display in Orlando, Florida. The carousel horse can be seen by those who are waiting in line at the Chinese Theatre for The Great Movie Ride at Hollywood Studios. This ride has since closed. The Mary Poppins Producers didn't inform Karen Dotrice (Jane Banks) or Matthew Garber (Michael Banks) about some elements that were going to happen. Jane Banks’ expression when Mary Poppins takes out many items from her carpet bag is genuine. Along with the scream when Mary Poppins gave the children medicines of different colors.Hilariously feeding the birds at St. Paul's Cathedral became illegal in the 21st Century due to an excessive defecation and an ever expanding avian population.

When filming The Princess Diaries in 2001, Julie Andrews discovered that Director Garry Marshall was living in the same house that she did when she was making Mary Poppins. Some of The Princess Diaries was also filmed on the same soundstage as Mary Poppins. Andrews knew this to be true because there is a plaque on the soundstage commemorating Poppins.Effortlessly enhance your home decoration with our battery-operated led light up globe. Perfect for xmas decorations, place it anywhere to elevate your festive ambiance with ease I have tea every week with a friend who collects music boxes. She has some music box snow globes, likes snow globe music boxes especially and was showing me a new one. I remarked that I didn't really care about snow globes but would love to have one that was like the one in 'Mary Poppins' and played the song. In the movie, the globe is discovered by grown-up Michael Banks in the cluttered attic of the Banks House,” says Kidney. “John Myhre explained that they placed it in the attic because ‘that’s where Jane and Michael’s childhood went.’ Though it’s only onscreen for a brief moment, the snow globe is instantly familiar to generations of Poppinsfans, and it had to be spot-on.” David Tomlinson was allegedly nervous about not being good enough for the part of Mr. George Banks, as he had never sung professionally before. Actor Stanley Holloway was considered for the role of Admiral Boom but instead he went on to star in the film My Fair Lady instead.
