Mary Preston

Mary Preston was born on Mar 28, 1934 in UK. Mary Preston's big-screen debut came with Timeslip - Season 1 directed by Peter Jefferies in 1970. Mary Preston is known for Timeslip directed by Peter Jefferies, Cheryl Burfield stars as Liz Skinner and Spencer Banks as Simon Randall. The upcoming new tvshow Mary Preston plays is Timeslip - Season 1 which will be released on Sep 28, 1970.

In 1959, just a few months after West Side Story opened at Her Majesty's, Mary took over the role of Anita from Chita Rivera, who was considered so essential to the show that its London opening was delayed until her child had been born. If the part was made for Chita, Mary's brilliant portrayal of the vivacious, dynamic latina, in terms of her singing, dancing and acting, was just amazing, especially for a girl born just down the A303 in Cornwall!
