" 'Mrs. Doubtfire' is a surprisingly original creation, modernised for a contemporary audience without detracting from the charm of the original. Not only is it a fantastically fun night out, it has heart...and that alone is worth the ticket price."

"The show may delight a younger generation encountering the story for the first time but it ultimately serves as a cautionary tale against taking a well-loved film and giving it a bland treatment on stage."

“Doubt thou the stars are fire, doubt that the sun doth move, doubt truth to be a liar – but never doubt I love ‘Mrs Doubtfire,’ the feelgood but not fluffy-minded musical that has pitched up at the newly made-over Shaftesbury theatre.”

"Appropriately enough for a tale all about transformations – inside and out – it’s surprisingly inventive, refashioning the original just enough to make it thoroughly theatrical and a smart 21st-century show."

“The story is ruthlessly streamlined, but most of the set-pieces remain...The stagecraft is cumbersome when it should dazzle. Sadly, that’s the evening’s hallmark.”

Those who are fans of the film will love this stage adaptation. It’s incredibly funny, toe-tappingly good and full of heart. It’s almost worth catching just for the superb quick changes that see Vick transform into Euphegenia, sometimes quite literally, in front of our eyes. Mrs. Doubtfire The Musical is the fun night out you never knew you needed.
