MARY POPPINS - Education Series, Part 10: Being Jane and Michael Banks

[@MrRobertMadge]

I was lucky enough to play Michael in the London production for two years. As my first ever professional job at the age of 9, it got me hooked. It was the most incredible experience anyone could wish for - so many amazing memories and I cry whenever I look back at clips such as these. This show will always hold such a special place in my heart :')

[@callumdoherty7204]

Robert Madge! You were great in the Les Miserables 25th Anniversary Concert!

[@kimiisland9802]

Robert, you did amazing in every role I have seen you in. I never saw a clip of you in Mary Poppins unfortunatly. But your Artful Dodger and Gavroche were sooo good. Never seen anyone coming close to that performance.

I WAS JANE IN MY SCHOOL'S PLAY! YAY I AM SO HAPPY!

[@greatday124]

You know what? We need more actors, like you, who are passionate about their craft. I know you called it a job, but clearly it was more than that. Talent will take you far, but when you add passion, your gifts cannot be measured. You've got what it takes! Blessings!

I played Jane Banks in Mary Poppins jr and it was the best theater experience ever she was so fun to play

[@lukemitchell9013]

Love the energy these guys have, and would've loved their job, hats off to them! Saw the broadway production a few (quite a few) years ago, still singing the songs!! Keep it up!

[@k-sj-c3495]

I've always wanted to be Jane and watching this video makes me super jealous!

[@mistiemoon2433]

For my school musical if we are doing Mary Poppins which I think we are, I would really love to be Jane banks! To be honest, except for the part where she is bratty And I’m not, we match each others personality so I think I’d do okay for Jane. :) wish me luck for the auditions.

[@marloesjhee]

Thank you for making this,, every episode was really special! Please please please make more episodes like this from other musicals!!! I really hope you are doing the little mermaid as well!

[@rosalie3214]

[@TheSlushie9]

[@izzyshervey2421]

I hate that I’m too old to be on the West-end (UK’s Broadway) because there are no shows with 13 year old characters. So I missed my shit but so happy that these six got to play Jane and Micheal, they are so talented.

[@lacoritavlogs5266]

Not trying to be rude but thats not jane's behavior im doing that play first you have to show them the movie so the kids can know how to act.

[@alaynakrastins9812]

From watching a bootleg that’s how Jane and Michael are written in the show, they were described as being bratty and having an attitude

[@SullySenior]

[@robbey10]

I saw the production in New York, it was awful. It was more vaudeville than theatre. It was overacted. The British accents were pitiful. I am sure PL Travers is rolling in her grave.
