Everyone’s favourite Scottish nanny, Euphegenia Doubtfire, is coming to home. The hit West End and Broadway musical, Mrs Doubtfire, is set to tour the UK and Ireland for the first time next year, with a Scottish Premiere at Glasgow’s King’s Theatre, where the show will run from 12-31 January, 2027.
The tour will star Gabriel Vick as Daniel Hillard following his acclaimed performances in the West End. A hilarious and heartfelt story about holding onto your loved ones against all odds, Mrs Doubtfire is the musical comedy we need right now.
Out-of-work actor Daniel will do anything for his kids. After losing custody in a messy divorce, he creates the 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.
Vick says, “I am delighted to be bringing the beloved Mrs Doubtfire direct from London to audiences throughout the UK and Ireland. The musical is full of the moments you know and love from the film and also packed with brilliant new songs. It is heartwarming, hilarious and going to be so much fun for the whole family. See you there, Poppets.”
