Maria Tapanes to Appear in BSCT Production of 'Mary Poppins'
Ms. Tapanes will play the challenging role of Miss Andrew in the upcoming Blessed Sacrament Children's Theatre production.

Blessed Sacrament Children's Theatre Producer Bob Tansley has released the bios of many of the young performers who will be appearing in the upcoming production of MARY POPPINS. I appreciate this exclusive to Patch.com.
Maria Tapanes will be making her BSCT debut in the role of Miss Andrew.
MARIA TAPANES is on stage for the first time with the BSCT and she is very excited to play the role of Miss Andrew. Maria’s only other credit was her first role as Momma Bear in the play Shrek at St Rose School in Newtown. Maria is currently a high honor student in the 7th grade at the Catholic Academy of Waterbury. She likes to draw and write stories in her spare time as well as star gaze and learn about astronomy. She would like to thank her mom and dad for everything they do for her.
