Musical.

A London banker and his suffragette wife are too busy to pay attention to their bored children, Jane and Michael. The family has its world turned upside down, however, by the irrepressible and nonsensical Mary Poppins, who teaches them how to enjoy life. Poppins is a kind of super-nanny who flies in with her umbrella in response to the request of the Banks children and proceeds to put things right with the aid of her rather extraordinary magical powers before flying off again. Jane and Michael experience a world of imagination in which people fly, carousel horses come alive, and tea parties are held on the ceiling.
