Dance Advantage – Best of Broadway: Mary Poppins

Best of Broadway: Mary Poppins by Becca Retter

Best of Broadway: Mary Poppins by Becca Retter is a collection of three recital-ready dances for performers ages 3–10, inspired by the music, characters, and theatrical spirit of the familiar Broadway story.

From a playful preschool song and dance to pre-ballet with a ribbon wand and a more advanced Grade 2 tap routine, the collection gives teachers three age-appropriate ways to bring a classic musical-theater theme to the recital stage.

The dances can be presented together as a Broadway-inspired recital section or used individually throughout the program. Each routine includes choreography video, music, and choreography notes to help teachers learn, rehearse, and prepare the dances for performance.
