Mrs. Doubtfire, the smash hit musical comedy is coming to New Brunswick. The critically acclaimed production features Craig Allen Smith in the title role of Daniel Hillard/Euphegenia Doubtfire (everyone’s favorite Scottish nanny), joined by actress Melissa Campbell as Miranda Hillard.

Out-of-work actor Daniel Hillard 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 hysterical 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 are better together.
