Mrs. Doubtfire Tickets

The West End will be saying ‘bye, dear’ to the hip old granny! The much-loved musical based on the cult-hit 1993 film will have its final performance at Shaftesbury Theatre on 26 April 2025. But it may not be the last the UK see’s of the Scottish nanny... 

Located in Shaftesbury Avenue, the Shaftesbury Theatre opened in 1911 as the New Prince’s Theatre but changed its name to Shaftesbury Theatre, a name first belonging to a theatre down the avenue, in 1963. Originally intended to be the home of popular melodramas, the theatre has been host to a wide range of productions over its lifetime including Shakespeare, farce, ballet, opera and musicals. What are the best seats at the Shaftesbury Theatre? The theatre's auditorium is set over three levels consisting of the Stalls, Royal Circle and Grand Circle. Sightlines from the majority of seats in the auditorium offer a near perfect view due to the theatres’ lack of pillars. The Stalls is a large, wide seating section divided by a central aisle, although due to the depth of the stalls there can sometimes be a feeling of disconnection from the stage at the rear of this section. The Stalls do have adequate legroom throughout however. The wide and steep Royal Circle on the first floor, divided into two sections separated by a central aisle, with its steep rake offers a clear view from every row. The Grand Circle sitting high above the Stalls on the upper floor of the theatre is split into three sections with the view from the first few rows providing good value for money. The Grand Circle does have a safety bar running along the front of this section which could impair the view of children or smaller adults. Shaftesbury Theatre seating plan

There’s no doubt that this award-winning musical is fire! This wacky whirlwind of a show blew into the West End last year (we’ll blame the pasta shrimp from Valenti’s) and has been thrilling theatregoers ever since. The laugh out loud comedy celebrated it’s one-year graniversary earlier this month, so why haven’t you seen Mrs Doubtfire it yet? Here are five reasons why you should give it a go, dear.

Say ‘Hello!’ to the new dears joining Mrs Doubtfire, as the hip hopping family hit enters its second year in the West End! The musicals leading man (or should that be lady?) Gabriel Vick (Avenue Q) will continue his tour-de-force turn as Daniel Hillard, alongside Laura Tebbutt (School of Rock) as Miranda Hillard, Cameron Blakely (Newsies) as Frank Hillard, Marcus Collins (Kinky Boots) as Andre. From Tuesday 14 May 2024 the unconventional family will be joined by rising star Charlotte Fleming as Lydia Hillard, Matthew Goodgame (Chicago) as Stuart Dunmire, and Ross Dawes (Phantom of the Opera) as Mr. Jolly. Micha Richardson (Come From Away), who currently stars as Janet Lundry in the feel-good musical, will take over the role of court liaison officer, Wanda Sellner, from Kelly Agbowu.

Page-to-stage adaptations are hardly a novel idea. After all, the longest-running musical in West End history, Les Misérables, is based on the 19th-century novel by Victor Hugo. The second longest, The Phantom of the Opera, is also adapted from a historical work of fiction. However, you may not know these musicals are also based on books. We’ll need a bigger wardrobe for all our potential World Book Day outfits, especially if we’re going to fit Anna’s dress in it!
