Meet one of Australia’s finest leading ladies taking on the title role in the UK and Ireland’s touring production of Mary Poppins, reprising her practically perfect role having been lauded with praise for her portrayal down under.

We dive into the welcomed pressures of continuing the legacy of “absolute queen” Julie Andrews, fast approaching 1,000 performers globally and why nothing can compare the feeling of taking flight at the end of each performance and seeing small audience members smiling back - and maybe some rather tearful parents, too! Plus we there’s good in everyone, as Mary is determined to teach each and every show.

Playing the most famous nanny in history? “A perfect, wonderful experience!”

Spit, spot!

Host: William J Connolly
