Mrs. Doubtfire by @undefined

0 Plays2 years ago

Mrs. Doubtfire is "Rockin' Now" on Broadway so take a listen to hear "About [our] Time" there and how we felt about this show.

Note: we do talk through the entire show so minor spoilers ahead (especially if you haven't seen the movie)!

If you'd rather see what the pros had to say, the critics were also fairly mixed for this show, as told by the Did They Like It review roundup.

Want to hear more about the behind the scenes of the show? Here is the panel interview Christine references in this episode on Variety's Stagecraft podcast.

Once again, Christine is recommending The Secret Life of the American Musical by Jack Viertel to get a glimpse of how musicals are structured.

If you're interested in some. of the specific changes the show has gone through, take a dive into the Broadway World Message Boards, where users have cataloged the differences.

While a cast album has been recorded, it has not been released yet, so music clips in this episode come from a variety of performances and rehearsal footage.
