I have been working with Broadway's favorite vocal coach, Liz Caplan, for a few years now. And I'm really exited for all that hard work and more I'm doing with the Full House team to manifest itself on the stage beginning this September. It's gonna be a wild ride!"

The show will be visiting Toronto for an exclusive run before heading off to Theatre 80 in New York, Full House! The Musical! will be on stage at the Randolph Theatre for a strictly limited engagement from Aug. 18 to Sept. 6

Full House! The Musical! is the unauthorized musical parody that puts an adult spin on the wildly popular 90s sitcom. The beloved TV show followed the heartwarming story of a widowed Father whose best friend and brother?in?law move in to help him raise his three daughters. Every episode of "Full House" serves to remind you that no matter how unconventional the Tanner family is - they will always be better than your family.

Full House! The Musical! follows Tanner family patriarch, Danny, who loses his super power of solving any problem with his sensible "Dad Speeches" (complete with soft piano accompaniment). Enjoy Danny's wacky and hilarious descent into madness as he slowly turns from wholesome Danny Tanner to foul?mouth and dark Bob Saget. Will he get his "Dad Speech" power back in time to save his family? Probably not!

Full House! The Musical! includes book, music, lyrics and stage direction by Bob and Tobly McSmith (Bayside! The Musical!; Showgirls! The Musical!) who will have audiences clapping and singing along to catchy tunes like "This House is Too Full" - Tanner Family/Comet the Dog; "Have Mercy on My Heart/Don't Touch the Hair" - Uncle Jessie/Rebecca Donaldson; "Look at these Assholes" - Comet the Dog and "Our Family is Better Than Your Family" - Tanner Family.

Joining Hilton on stage, the cast features Seth Blum as Joey Gladstone, John Duff as Jesse Katsopolis, Amanda Nicholas as DJ Tanner, Marguerite Halcovage as Stephanie Tanner, and Marshall Louise as the Olsen Twins.
