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 right now — one that proves we’re better together.
Stepping into the shoes of the legendary Robin Williams sounds like no easy task at all. Yet Rob McClure, reprising a role that earned him a Tony nomination on Broadway, is more than up to it. As Daniel Hillard and his alter ego, Mrs. Doubtfire, he manages to be both hilariously memorable and sincere.
Tony-nominated Rob McClure dons the curly wig once again as Daniel/Mrs.Doubtfire in this national tour after debuting the role originally on Broadway. A strong talent of the stage, McClure has his fair share of comedic work with shows such as CHAPLIN, HONEYMOON IN VEGAS and most recently BEETLEJUICE under his belt. People who love the original film will be glad to know that McClure skillfully embodies the heart and humor of Robin Williams’ iconic role, delivering a performance that honors the original while making the role his own. His comedic timing and vocal talents anchor the production. At the same time, his seamless transitions between the bumbling Daniel to the charming, quick-witted Doubtfire are downright impressive. Truly, it takes a talent like McClure to elicit laughter and empathy throughout the show’s runtime.
