Cast illness and other snippets - Mary Poppins

There has been a bug going round the cast of Mary Poppins with several cast members missing performances. The blog 'Mystery in Musicals' had this post about it.

Unfortunately with having people working together like this all the time, colds and flu spread like wildfire, but I'd like to take this opportunity to wish them all a speedy recovery.



On a lighter note, the complete cast including Philip Quast are due to perform at the Sydney Opera House on Monday 6th September, at the 2010 Helpmann awards. Information and news of nominations is here.

A short article, more so than a review, from Les Solomon from aussietheatre.com about Mary Poppins and also a few words about the up-coming Helpmann Awards.
