P.L. Travers' iconic English nanny, Mary Poppins, has been delighting audiences through the printed word, film and theater since 1934.

Now, thanks to director Jane Lanier,this classic musical is coming alive at the Fort Wayne Civic Theatre stage, ready to capture hearts in a whole new way. 

In a word? Well, you know...it's supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

Earlier this week, WBOI's Julia Meek met with Lanier and lead actress Halee Shutt to discuss the magic --and the message -- Ms. Poppins brings to the 21st century.
