How old are the kids in Mary Poppins?

Answer 1

In the novel, or the film, this is not directly stated. there are two child actors in the movie Version- Jane and Michael Banks, and one of the songs is tailored for them. It is definitely a musical comedy. The ages are not directly stated. it seems to take place in the Summer so school and ages-grades, etc do not come up in the plot, My guess they are school age, but not directly stated, age wise, when aiming for a wide audience ( Radio can do this better and easier than film) often characters are drawn very broadly.

Answer 2

If you date Mary Poppins from the year the first book was published (1934) then in 2010 she was 76 years old. The movie Mary Poppins (1964) would be 46 years old. Keep in mind that P.L. Travers imagined that Mary Poppins would be about 27 years old in the stories.

Answer 3

The year is 2011, so Julie Andrews in now 76 years old.
