I was watching videos from The View, and they were talking about the Book, How does the Show Go On? And they went to the set of Mary Poppins. Does anybody know how does Mary Poppins pulls all those crazy things out of her small bag? And how does she make a bed? Its really fantastic!

The bed is on a riseing platform if you look closely its so obvious and most of the objects in the bag are foldable.

Umm. No. That's not how the bag works. Do a search.
I thought Patti Lupone came to the theatre each night and waved her wand over the prop table and set pieces. Isn't THAT where the magic comes from?
Foldable props, movable platforms? RIDICULOUS!! What next, Santa doesn't really exist?
Watch this....

I just sent Patti a text message and she confirmed that she is indeed responsible for the Mary Poppins magic.
