This month’s guest is my wonderful teacher, mentor & friend - Mary Doherty (the best 🥹) and it means a lot to have her on the pod

Mary played Bonnie in the original West End cast of Come From Away and as part of that run, they won Best New Musical at the 2019 Olivier Awards

She’s also performed in musicals including Les Miserables, Avenue Q, Grease, Our House & Merry Wives (alongside Dame Judi Dench)

Mary has toured with the RSC & performed at the Globe, with her favourite role being Queen Margaret in the Henry VI trilogy

In 2012, she saw a space to help young actors on their journey to becoming professional actors & started the @theactorsclass which gets unanimous praise (having attended myself, all of it is deserved and much more - Mary creates an environment like no other 🪄✨)

Personally there have been challenges, with a difficult journey to motherhood but ending in an IVF miracle. Mary is a proud Mum of Annie! 

Here are the mugs talked about, if you’d like to follow along and see: 

1.  Tring Park School for the Performing Arts 50th anniversary mug 
2.  ‘The best holiday of my life’ family collage mug made by her nephew of her  family holiday in the Algarve, Portugal for her Dad’s birthday
3. Superman mug - press night gift from husband Chris (one of many superman themed gifts 🦸🏻‍♂️)
4. Come From Away The Musical mug 
5. Emma Bridgewater Mummy mug 

 Some of Mary's quick fire favourites!
