Cast members of “Mary Poppins” include Tessa Paluzzi, Rachel Bodayla, Ben Ament, Nicole McCleary, Troy A. Kowatch, Jennifer Woodling, Jerry Woodling, Addy Hildebrand, Katie Ulcine and L. Wesley Heverly rehearsing earlier in July, before the show was cancelled.

The “Mary Poppins” show that had been scheduled for Greensburg's Palace Theatre earlier this month, and was rescheduled for Aug. 10 to 12 at Greensburg Garden & Civic Center, has been cancelled.

The show was originally rescheduled due to a glitch in securing the rights to the show and a turnover in the local producers.

Originally scheduled through C&B Productions, the show was taken over by Applause Productions, a locally based group of theater enthusiasts. Approximately 40 community cast members had been rehearsing the production for several months.

Applause Productions reduced the ticket prices, but was still forced to cancel because of “unforeseen circumstances,” according to a press release.

Refunds are available from the point of purchase.
