I'm 13 and it's my dream to play Mary Poppins on Broadway. This has been my dream since I first saw the show on Broadway when I was 9. I'm in drama class now and I've been in a bunch of plays, and if I would just see this play one more time I would be happy. (:
I just wanted to tell Mary Poppins stage show fans that my friend has just set up a big fansite for the young actor who played Bert in the UK touring production which you can view here if you are interested:

@276Smiley I know what you mean but if you saw the show you would understand things a bit better. The costume designs had to be different to the Tony Walton( Julie Andrews ex husband) costume designs that were used in the 1964 film. The show is a may zing!
I don't like this Mary at all :\ she's not nearly as stunning and beautiful as Julie Andrews and no one can compare her voice to the one and only. IMO, probably no one will be able to take that legendary hold of Mary Poppins away from Julie, because she is IT.
@DreamersGirl66 I agree, but unfortunately we will have to make do. Still even with the absence of Julie Andrews you have to admit, it's still a good show.
@brucelee900 yeah but the one at disney probably couldnt act, sing and dance as well as her and for laura to win an Olivier award and get chosen by cameron macintosh to play it hmm... you aren't going to find a duplicate of julie andrews are you its just impossible so the thing here is get real!
@samsurfin12 Personally, I feel she doesn't capture my heart the way Julie Andrews did. I find Laura Michelle Kelly rather creepy and over acted, whereas Julie did wonderful little eye rolls and, to top it all off, she sang it better.
@emmadilemmasings Well, there's no accounting for taste. I know that sounds condescending, but but I don't mean it to be. I just happen to disagree with you. Best:)
@entertainer1987 Laura M Kelly does her own random different thing each night. She does not keep to her steps and does her own thing or blows kisses to people in the first few rows. I can't understand her!
She just looks the perfect Mary Poppins i thought that when i saw her in London and theres just the look about her which makes her look just like julie andrews lol i dunno if anyone thinks the same? :S
Don't make assumptions based on a montage with a song playing in the background when you've never seen Christian. Of course, having fully formed opinions without having ever seen or heard of someone seem to be the norm among Broadway fans...but I don't want you to be one of those people. Go see him. He is perfect as Bert. You can't even really tell from this video!
Laura Michelle Kelly is the current Broadway Mary!

mmmmmmmmmmm bit annoyed that you have not included a clip from the new toy scene " Playing the game " in this little advert!!!!!!!
Why is the new song and scene being kept such a big secret to people who have not seen the show.
I saw the show in August and it was Temper Tenper so I think I am entitled to hear the new song?
