Based on one of the most popular Disney movies of all time and the Broadway musical that played for over 2,500 performances and received multiple Olivier and Tony Awards nominations, Cameron Mackintosh and Disney’s Mary Poppins is capturing hearts in a whole new way: as a practically perfect Broadway Junior musical!
The jack-of-all trades, Bert, introduces us to England in 1910 and the troubled Banks family. Young Jane and Michael have sent many a nanny packing before Mary Poppins arrives on their doorstep. Using a combination of magic and common sense, she must teach the family members how to value each other again. Mary Poppins takes the children on many magical and memorable adventures, but Jane and Michael aren’t the only ones upon whom she has a profound effect. Even grown-ups can learn a lesson or two from the nanny who advises that “Anything can happen if you let it.”
Cameron Mackintosh and Disney’s Mary Poppins JR. is an enchanting mixture of irresistible story, unforgettable songs and breathtaking dance numbers!

This beloved classic comedy tells the story of Elwood P. Dowd, a kind and eccentric man whose best friend is Harvey — an invisible six-foot-tall rabbit. As Elwood’s family tries to deal with the complications Harvey creates, the play becomes a warm, funny, and thoughtful look at kindness, sanity, and what it means to truly accept others.
Performance dates are September 11, 12, 18, and 19, 2026 at 7:30 PM, and September 13, 2026 at 2:30 p.m.

What the community is saying…..
Just got home from seeing Little Shop of Horrors at the Pines. This production was totally amazing!! The cast was awesome, great music, so creative & fun! The JCCT is a small community theater that certainly belies it’s name, producing high quality performances that will leave you wanting more. The cast tonight was professional, extremely talented and gave so much life to each character. I say BRAVO to everyone involved in this production! (And the dinner provided by the Pines was excellent as always!). Thank you all for a memorable evening.
Took the grandkids to see this tonight. We all loved it. They enjoyed seeing people that they went to school with in the play. Great play.
Great Job, Cast of “A Charlie Brown Christmas!!” What a light-hearted evening bringing back fun memories of childhood!!
JCYAT has provided such a wonderful experience for my daughter. She has found something she loves to do. Being on stage has opened up a door in her personality that she discovered in her time with JCYAT. Being on stage, and the instruction given to her has built her confidence and self-esteem. She has been given a chance to shine her light, and I’m very thankful for that.
JCYAT has helped enhance our daughters’ social skills. We have also seen our girls’ confidence and belief in themselves blossom and strengthen. They aren’t afraid to try new things anymore.
JCYAT is a year-long gift for Jackson County. Passionate, talented, and tireless leaders direct a versatile and unique cast of varying ages and abilities that consistently flourish on stage. JCYAT is the perfect place for young people who have a love of theater.
Participating in JCYAT has given my son a greater sense of confidence, a broader vocabulary, has sharpened his reading skills, and it has introduced him to a lot of new friends! Every time he has participated in a show he has enjoyed every moment from helping backstage to actually being out front as an actor. He’s sad every time a play has to end and looks forward to auditioning for the next! Our family is very thankful for JCYAT!
At the age of 10, Bridget found her passion for theatre; it brings a twinkle to her eye and a flutter in her heart like nothing else! I’m so thankful to JCYAT for promoting her love for theatre and giving her opportunities you just don’t find in rural Indiana!
Alyssa really enjoyed the JCYAT summer workshop! She had fun and learned something new each day; she gained confidence and grew out of her shell by the end of the week! JCYAT is an excellent program that Jackson County is fortunate to have!
Saw my second show with JCCT on Friday – excellent! I’ve seen my share of regional and beyond theatre, and our local talent rivals and in some instances, overtakes what I have seen elsewhere. From the quality of the performances, to the crew work, sets and music – you leave each performance thoroughly satisfied! The Theatre Shows are small and intimate and historic in value, the dinner theatre is a meal that is enjoyable and well served! Take in a local show – you can only leave joyful, and waiting for the next show!
