Review for BEYOND THE RAINBOW
“Rooney, who is one of the most natural child actors I have ever seen, beautifully captured young Judy’s sweetness, sincerity and exuberance, turning in a performance that was thoroughly appealing.”

Review for MARY POPPINS
“While child roles can often be hit-and-miss, the shining stars of Mary Poppins may very well be the young duo of Mitchell Wray and Anjali Rooney. . . . Rooney, who won Carmelfest has Talent this past summer, is simply extraordinary as Jane, a young girl filled with vim and vigor but still a young girl. Rooney has a beautiful and expressive singing voice and fearlessly lives into her emotions even when Mary Poppins calls for her to fly high “over the rooftops.” Rooney’s is a scene-stealing performance that instantly makes you look forward to her future work here in Indy.”
“Anjali Rooney, who played Jane Banks, also had an exceptional voice for her age, being only 12 and already having a more powerful belting capacity than some performers who are twice her age.”
