A co-production by Disney and Cameron Mackintosh, Mary Poppins has become the biggest hit to open during the 2006-2007 season and is the must-see new musical for theatergoers of all ages. On a recent visit to the set of the hit production, reporter Anne Craig got an exclusive peek at Ashley Brown's (Beauty and the Beast) dressing room at the New Amsterdam Theatre. Craig also visited the set and spoke to cast members Gavin Lee (Contact, Oklahoma!) Henry Hodges(Beauty and the Beast, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang), and Katherine Leigh Doherty about starring in the biggest hit of the season.
According to press statements the Broadway production was heralded by New York critics as, "a roof-raising, toe-tapping, high-flying extravaganza" (The Daily News) and led one critic to exclaim, "I loved the movie, but I have to confess I love the Broadway musical even more" (WABC-TV).
The London production continues its record-setting run as it enters its third year at the Prince Edward Theatre in the West End.
