Austin: Mrs. Doubtfire at Bass Concert Hall
September 22 @ 7:30 pm - 10:00 pm
$17
“Mrs. Doubtfire,” the Broadway musical based on the beloved 1993 film, opens its Austin run at Bass Concert Hall on Tuesday, September 22, 2026, at 7:30 PM as part of the Broadway in Austin series. The run continues through September 27, with tickets starting at $17.
Adapted from the Robin Williams film, the stage musical follows Daniel Hillard, a father who disguises himself as an elderly British nanny to stay close to his children after a divorce. The show pairs the story’s heartfelt family comedy with an upbeat, character-driven score, and its Broadway run earned praise for translating the film’s emotional core into a genuinely funny, big-hearted stage production.
Bass Concert Hall, the largest performing arts venue in Central Texas, is the primary stop for national Broadway tours coming through Austin, with the scale and production capabilities to support a full touring musical production.
“Mrs. Doubtfire” has resonated with audiences across its touring run for balancing broad physical comedy with a genuinely moving story about family and connection, making it a popular pick for multi-generational audiences. Fans looking to make a full night of downtown Austin can also check out The Long Center for the Performing Arts, another major Austin performing arts venue nearby.
Bass Concert Hall, located on the University of Texas campus as part of Texas Performing Arts, is the largest performing arts venue in Central Texas, giving it the scale to host major touring Broadway productions and large-scale concerts that smaller Austin venues simply can’t accommodate. Ample on-campus parking and its central location make it an easy stop for a night out, and the hall’s size and acoustics have made it a regular stop for some of the biggest names touring in classical, country, pop, and musical theater alike. Its campus setting also means visitors can often combine a show with a visit to other UT Austin landmarks nearby.
Performances run September 22 through 27, with an opening-night curtain at 7:30 PM. Bass Concert Hall offers reserved seating throughout, with lobby concessions and bars open before the show and during intermission.
