MRS. DOUBTFIRE

About the show

Mrs. Doubtfire is the 22nd new musical produced by The 5th Avenue Theatre (Hairspray, Memphis, Aladdin, A Christmas Story). Following its world premiere in Seattle, it will open on Broadway at the Stephen Sondheim Theatre this Spring, making it the 10th new musical produced by The 5th to go on to have a subsequent Broadway run. Mrs. Doubtfire will be produced on Broadway by multi-Tony Award® winner Kevin McCollum (Avenue Q, Rent, In The Heights, Something Rotten!) and is based on the Twentieth Century Fox Motion Picture. Daniel Hillard, a struggling, out-of-work actor, will do anything for his kids. After losing custody in a messy divorce, he creates the kindly alter ego of Scottish nanny Euphegenia Doubtfire in a desperate attempt to stay in their lives. As his new character takes on a life of its own, Mrs. Doubtfire teaches Daniel more than he bargained for about how to be a father. A hilarious and heartfelt story about holding onto your loved ones against all odds, Mrs. Doubtfire is the musical comedy we need
