Doubtfire cast check in

New comedy musical Mrs Doubtfire has confirmed its cast for the UK première at Manchester Opera House in September.

Based on the 20th Century Studios motion picture, the cast will include Gabriel Vick, Laura Tebbutt, Carla Dixon Hernandez, Cameron Blakely, Marcus Collins, Dominic Andersen, Vanessa Fisher, Ian Talbot OBE and Aiesha Naomi Pease.

The role of Christopher Hillard will alternate between young performers George Nearn Stuart, Charlie Tumbridge and Fred Wilcox, and that of Natalie Hillard will alternate between Jessica Bowerman, Darcey Dean and Angelica-Pearl Scott.

A story about holding onto your loved ones against all odds, Daniel creates the ​alter ego of Scottish nanny Euphegenia 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.
