Alec Baldwins Heres the Thing Podcast with Julie Andrews (2015)

We often think of Julie Andrews as the prim nanny from Mary Poppins and The Sound of Music, but her personal path may have the greatest resemblance to one of her Broadway roles: Eliza Doolittle in My Fair Lady. Andrews says she grew up on the wrong side of the tracks in a family strapped for cash during wartime, and her initial training as an actor was in the less than prestigious field of vaudeville. But right before opening night of her breakout role in The Boy Friend, it was producer Cy Feuers advice that we have to thank, in large part, for the level of excellence Andrews has brought to musical film and theater for generations. Forget camp, he told her. Get real. Source:
