"Mary Poppins" is one of the most popular Disney movies of all time, and has also captured hearts as a "practically perfect" musical. Based on the books by P.L. Travers and the classic Walt Disney film, "Mary Poppins" has delighted Broadway audiences with more than 2,500 performances, receiving nominations for nine Olivier and seven Tony Awards, including for Best Musical.

"Ring of Fire" comes from the iconic songbook of Johnny Cash. The unique jukebox musical tells a story of love and faith, struggle and success, rowdiness and redemption, and home and family. More than two dozen classic hits -- including "I Walk the Line," "A Boy Named Sue," "Folsom Prison Blues," and the title tune -- are performed by a multi-talented cast, painting a musical portrait that promises to be a foot-stomping, crowd-pleasing salute to a uniquely American legend. Though he is never impersonated during the show, Johnny Cash's music takes center stage, climaxing in a concert that will both move and exhilarate.

Tickets going on sale to the general public June 1 can be purchased at the CPS Box Office, located in
