Mary Poppins- Jan. 2015 @ Selma Arts Center
We are beginning preparations to have DX do the tap dance, Step in Time, in the musical, Mary Poppins! This should be a lot of fun, with a minimum of commitment.
As you can imagine there are quite a few details to iron out. However, we want to give you what we do know.
Please review the following info and then text Robert to say that it all works, or what potential issues you may have. Also, as you have questions,please ask.

Basic Info |
|
+ we are doing one number, Step in Time, which is in the last 30 minutes of the show. We should have to be there less than one hour. So for a 7:00 show, we probably won't have to arrive until about 8:45 (3:45 for the 2:00 shows)
+ there will be a show for school kids on Wed. Jan. 14. Hopefully the timing will work out for all or most to make it. + As we get closer, we will organize carpooling up and back to Selma. |

STEP IN TIME
[SWEEPS]
Brush away the dirt and soot
Brush away your tears
Cobwebs that aren't swept away
Hang around for years
In all weathers, up all hours
We can see for miles
Our idea of heaven is
A night out on the tiles
We may look a motley crew
(We may look a motley crew)
Smudged with tar and grime
(Smudged with tar and grime)
But when you need a helping hand
(But when you need a helping hand)
We try to step in
Try to step in
Try to step in
Just in time
[BERT]
We will step in
[SWEEPS]
Step in time
[BERT]
We will step in
[SWEEPS]
Step in time
[BERT]
Never need a reason, never need a rhyme
[BERT & SWEEPS]
We will step in, step in time
Over the rooftops step in time
Over the rooftops step in time
Never need a reason, never need a rhyme
Over the rooftops step in time
Watch where you step but step in time
Watch where you step but step in time
Never need a reason, never need a rhyme
Watch where you step but step in time
Kick your knees up, step in time
Kick your knees up, step in time
Never need a reason, never need a rhyme
Kick your knees up, step in time
[MARY POPPINS]
Childhood is a step in time
Parenthood's the same
[MARY POPPINS & BERT]
Never miss a chance to get it right
[BERT]
Don't it seem a perfect crime
Don't it seem a shame
[MARY POPPINS & BERT]
When the steps aren't going
As smoothly as they might
[SWEEPS]
That's when we step in, step in time
That's when we step step in time
Never need a reason, never need a rhyme
That's when we step in, step in time
Spin spin spin spin spin
Link your elbows, step in time
Link your elbows, step in time
Never need a reason, never need a rhyme
Link your elbows, step in time
Link your elbows, step in time
Step in time, step step in time
[MARY POPPINS]
Just remember when you're low
Feeling in the wars
Someone's up your chimney
[SWEEPS]
And it isn't Santa Claus
If you need us, if you don't
(If you need us, if you don't)
Doesn't make much odds
(Doesn't make much odds)
We'll be watching over you
(We'll be watching over you)
