Julie Andrews, composed, elegant, well-spoken… a typical English lady?

A lady, yes, but not born of noble blood. Julie Andrews is a self-made woman. She spent her childhood performing on the Vaudeville circuit, singing and dancing, two shows a day, six days a week, alongside Pops and Barbara Andrews. Little Julie would stand on a crate to sing a duet with Pops while mom Barbara accompanied them on piano.

On 1 November 1948, a thirteen-year-old Andrews became the youngest solo performer ever to be seen in a Royal Variety Performance. But all was not well in the Andrews family. Pops’ drinking was out of control. He was a violent drunk, completely unemployable. So the Julie became the sole provider for the bickering Andrews family.

Vaudeville was her training ground, Broadway made her and Hollywood immortalised her.  Julie Andrews -Uncut tells the of the rials and tribulations that shaped Julie Andrews in to a shining star.
