O
n Thursday, August 2, Pensacola Little Theatre
hosted famous Broadway star, Ashley Brown, on the
night that the theatre presented their very own Mary
Poppins. Mary Poppins happened to be Ashley’s
Broadway debut and even more importantly, Ashley is a local to
Pensacola and was happy to come back home to the theatre she
started from. She called Gulf Breeze her childhood growing up and
did many things like Pensacola Children’s Chorus and other plays
to fulfill her dreams of becoming a Broadway star.
Pensacola Little Theatre had the entire cast of Mary Poppins
at the meet and greet for Ashley plus the guests who attended.
The event included meeting Ashley Brown, picture taking, and a
question and answer hour. The room was filled with Mary Poppins
themed artwork, made by local artists and the cast, which was
for sale that night. Attendees enjoyed their evening that included
snacks, beverages, and a peaceful atmosphere with a local star.
After the questions were answered, the guests and crowd enjoyed
watching the play Mary Poppins in the theatre and it certainly
brought some nostalgia for the great star Ashley Brown while she
was back home in Pensacola.
