One of the most famous babysitters of all time is coming to the stage at Walton Arts Center this December. This week we’re giving away 4 tickets to see “Mrs. Doubtfire,” the musical, at Walton Arts Center on Friday, December 19, 2025 at 7:30pm. If you loved the iconic 1993 movie, you’ll adore the musical version on the big stage.
ABOUT THE SHOW:
Everyone’s favorite Scottish nanny is headed to Fayetteville in this internationally acclaimed hit musical critics call “wonderful, heart-warming, and laugh-out-loud funny” (Manchester Evening News) and “a feel-good, family-friendly comedy that delivers” (The Hollywood Reporter). Based on the beloved film, MRS. DOUBTFIRE tells the hysterical and heartfelt story of an out-of-work actor who will do anything for his kids. It’s “the lovable, big-hearted musical comedy we need right now,” raves the Chicago Tribune – one that proves we’re better together. (This show is recommended for ages 6 and up.)
NOTE: The winner of these 4 tickets might choose to take kids to the show, but if you’d prefer to make it a double-date with another couple, you may want to know about the optional “cocktail class add-on.” The cocktail class happens before the show and will teach you how to mix two specialty cocktails and send you home with recipes, too. (Class requires a separate fee, and all attendees must be 21 or older.)

OMG! Favorite scene is Robin Williams as Mrs Doubtfire cleaning house. He’s dances with a vacuum cleaner and a broom while song “Looks like a Lady” plays. Hysterical!!!
My favorite scene is at the end when he’s having to change back-and-forth at the restaurant!!
Love Mrs.Doubtfire! Its all great but love when they are going through all the different disguises.
I love all the quotable lines. I still regularly say, “It was a run-by fruiting!” 😂
I love when he smashes his face into the pie to keep from being recognized.
I love when he throws the crazy and chaotic birthday party with all of the animals!
I love that movie. It’s one of Robin Williams’ best performances. That guy was exceptionally talented.

“A woman would never make a nuclear bomb. They would never make a weapon that kills, no, no. They’d make a weapon that makes you feel bad for a while.” Robin Williams was the best!

Ok. How classic is this?! I mean, flash back to my youth! This is a movie with core memories for me! Hysterical. I love soo much of this film. The scene where he’s switching back and forth between costumes while the social worker is visiting his house and his face is smashed in a pie! Love it! When he’s getting checked out by the older man! 🙂 Thanks for the memories!!
Such a great movie!
I love how Mrs. Doubtfire blends heartfelt humor with genuine emotion, showing the lengths a parent will go to stay close to their kids.
