In the heart of London’s vibrant theatre district, an unassuming marquee at Shaftesbury Theatre belies the magic that unfolds within. As the curtains rise, audiences are transported into the world of Daniel, a father willing to transcend boundaries for the love of his children.
Mrs Doubtfire, a film that etched Robin Williams into the annals of cinematic history, has found a new home on the stage. This adaptation isn’t just a retelling. It’s a reimagining. While the heart of the tale remains – a father’s desperate ruse to stay close to his children – the musical layers bring a fresh dynamism that’s utterly enchanting.
This masterpiece first wooed audiences at Manchester’s Opera House in September 2022. Its limited run, marked by the persistent “Sold Out” sign, hinted at the phenomenon it was destined to be. A subsequent premiere in London in May 2023 led to a cascade of applause, extending its reign to summer 2024. Now, the great news for theatre enthusiasts? This gem will sparkle at Shaftesbury Theatre until at least September 2024!
The stage is graced by a constellation of stars:
Yet, beyond the limelight, the magic is orchestrated by Tony Award-winner, Jerry Zaks. Assisted by scenic visionary, David Korins, and choreography genius, Lorin Latarro, this team has crafted a visual and auditory symphony.
Tickets, including for newly added dates, are now fluttering away on Ticketmaster. And in the words of the show’s Instagram – “Our nanny has spruced up some seats especially for you!”
So, in a world craving connection, “Mrs. Doubtfire” stands as a testament to the lengths one will go for family. And perhaps, in the midst of laughter and song, it reminds us of the transformative power of love and theatre.
