Review: MRS. DOUBTFIRE THE NEW COMEDY MUSICAL at Fisher Theatre
MRS. DOUBTFIRE runs at the Fisher Theatre till November 26.
|
MRS. DOUBTFIRE stars beloved Broadway leading man Rob McClure, who drew critical raves, standing ovations, and a Tony Award nomination when he created Euphegenia Doubtfire (everybody's favorite Scottish nanny). Rob McClure (formally in the Broadway cast of Beetlejuice) is a multifaceted actor ranging from a wide range of accents to superior dance moves. The scene where Mrs. Doubtfire steps in for a model and dances in a fashion show is hilarious.
Joining him is another Broadway favorite, renowned actress, and his real-life wife, Maggie Lakis, as Miranda Hillard. Maggie Lakis leads the show as a true matriarch of the family. Her stage presence is undeniable, and Maggie Lakis and Rob McClure's chemistry is cosmic.
A special shout out to Hair and wig Designer David Brian Brown for his fantastic work on the iconic Mrs. Doubtfire wig.
