I was lucky enough to be the lady that was asked to be Maria in the Sound Of Music, and that film was fortunate enough to be huge hit. The same with Mary Poppins. I got terribly lucky in that respect.

After all, children are children no matter their background.

Sometimes I'm so sweet even I can't stand it.

The anateur works until they get something right. The professional works until they can't go wrong.

Hopefully, I brought people a certain joy. That will be a wonderful legacy.

Mary Poppins is magical and fun.

If somebody can act out one of the books as a play, if they can see a play, film, or television show that's related, that can be so stimulating for them. Anything that makes children engage and think - and love what the story is about - can only bring the most enormous rewards.
