The Penguin Waiters are characters from Disney's 1964 musical film Mary Poppins . They sing Jolly Holiday in the animated sequence of the movie and dance with Bert .
Personality
Three of them are cheerful, but their leader appears cynical.
Appearances
They are seen in the animated sequence of the film when Mary Poppins and Bert are dining. They waiter them and enjoy a dance with Bert.
They serve people at the Ink and Paint Club in this film. Eddie Valiant orders a scotch on the rocks from one and adds, "And I mean ice!" The penguin returns with his drink with a diamond in it ("ice" is a slang term for "diamond"), upon which he replies, "Toons." Two of them appear at the end of the film alongside the other cartoon characters.
They serve as waiters for the House of Mouse .
In the film, the Penguins remain a point of contention between P.L. Travers and Walt Disney , as Travers is adamant on having them in Mary Poppins since it feels it would dumb down her books. When Travers cries at the premiere, is it ambigous whether she's sad about the Penguins being left in Mary Poppins (as she claimed both in this film and in real life) or about how Mary Poppins reminds her of the tragic relationship with her father.
They will return in the animated sequence of the film.
They are semi-rare characters. They only make occasional meet and greet appearances and are often seen with Mary Poppins. They are also seen in Fantasmic! on certain nights. The penguins are also featured in One Man's Dream II: The Magic Lives On!
Disney Games
The Penguins make a possible role in 102 Dalmatians: Puppies to the Rescue , as one of the toys that Cruella's Factory makes. They try to attack either Domino or Oddball, by sliding towards them.
