This Broadway musical is one of the well-liked plays preferred by most. It
is about the complications and crabbiness which is being faced by every
family when it comes to managing kids. We are introduced to the Banks
family comprising of two children - named Jane and Michael, who have to be
taught the primary lessons of being well-mannered and polite.

Mary Poppins' magical nanny makes her noteworthy arrival within the life of
Banks Family brings a positive change. Their life alters in a better way.
She never openly acknowledges her strange and magical powers, and feigns
insult when one of the children refers to her previous adventures.
Nonetheless, it appears that parents need nanny more than children. Both
Mr. & Mrs. Banks have a different attitude towards life because of
which there lies a verbal gab between them.

Mrs. Winifred Banks - the wife of George Banks and mother of Jane and
Michael, she is a former actress who is struggling to enter her husband's
social circle. The song "Being Mrs. Bank" is sung by his wife throughout
the play through which she wants to express the love towards her husband.
George Banks works at the Bank in the City of London. He has a more
prominent role as a cross man who wants order and largely ignores his
children but later on in the movie his attitude changes.

Although in the books there are five Banks children: Jane, Michael, John,
Barbara and Annabel. But, only Jane and Michael appear in the film and
stage musical.

Bert is one of Mary Poppins' many friends. He normally draws pictures on
the sidewalk with chalk, but when it rains he instead sells matches and
thus, known as the Match-man. He acts as a narrator and close friend of
Mary and the Banks children. Miss Lark and Admiral Boom are the neighbors
to the banks
