Claire Bolton, Dan Gibbins, and Erin Weir

It's 1964 and it's all singing, all dancing, all grudge match for Julie Andrews! The Oscar goes to Lerner and Lowe's My Fair Lady, with Audrey Hepburn taking over the role Julie Andrews created onstage, because the future Dame wasn't "a big enough draw." In response, Andrews joins Walt Disney for the aggressively whimsical Mary Poppins, claiming the box office crown from the film that rejected her. But who did it best? When it comes to the tunes, Doolittle's doing plenty and Poppins ain't stoppin', and Erin, Claire, and Dan have many an opinion. Join us for the 60s dance party!
