Mary Poppins Character Breakdown For Auditions

*For Vocal Auditions, have a prepared piece of music, 32 bars, that correlates to the specific character(s)/ensemble you are auditioning for, as is listed below. (If a character has more than one vocal type written next to it, that is because it can be sung by either of those vocal types.) Please be prepared to do your best Cockney or Posh British Accent. Music tracks may not be used for auditions as we will have an accompanist on hand.

*If the character that you are auditioning for has dance requirements, you will need to come to both acting/vocal auditions, and dance auditions.

*For Reference: Mary Poppins Original 2005 London Cast Recording is available to listen to on Spotify, YouTube and Apple Music.
