How do they make Mary Poppins fly in Mary Poppins?
Mary wears a harness (under her costume) that is attached to two small wires, that go up above the stage. They can control where Mary goes! Up, down, side to side, all over! At the end on the Mary Poppins stage production Mary flies above the audience heads. Two wires are hung above the audience (which are usually visible in light) and Mary flies above the audience to the ceiling. Similar effects were used in past Broadway productions of Peter Panand Witches of Eastwick. Somewhat similar effects are used today in the Broadway production of Spiderman: Turn off the Dark.

Someone else answered:
"that blond hair girl in Sonny In Chance".
Perhaps that person is referring to Tiffany Thornton of Sonny with a Chance, but it could not be her since she was born in 1986 and Mary Poppins was released in 1964.
Mary Poppins is set in 1910, as evidenced by the lyrics of The Life I Lead. This means that it is the Edwardian era, although only just, as King Edward died in 1910 and was succeeded by King George V (who reigned during WWI). The Edwardian era strictly speaking came to an end with the death of King Edward in 1910, although some historians see fit to extend it to include such events as the sinking of the Titanic in 1912, and World War I (1914-1918).
Who is the author of Mary Poppins books?
Pamela L Travers is the author of Mary Poppins- in book form. there are serious differences between the books and the movie. The character Bert does not appear in the books, and there is no (Jane Adaams of London) syndrome, Mary does not court lower-deck occupational types such as Chimney sweeps ( a sneeze away from a garbage man). The super-powers of Mary are toned down in the books, it may be she projects illusions rather like The Shadow. The books first came out in l934. Ms Travers is no longer living. The Broadway play is in full flight. one wonders why this serious nonsense is so darn popular, it cannot happen.
