City Hall is alive with the sound of music.
Julie Andrews, who won an Oscar for her title role in the 1964 film, Mary Poppins, is in Chicago with the national tour of the musical comedy, “The Boy Friend.”
Chicago Mayor Richard Daley proclaimed Tuesday “Julie Andrews Day” in the city, calling the 70-year-old actress-singer an “entertainment legend.”
“I love your city, and I’m very proud to bring our show to your theater and hope to come back many, many times,” Andrews said.
Andrews is the director of ?The Boy Friend.”
She has been credited in other movies such as ?The Sound of Music,? and recently ?The Princess Diaries.?
