One sure sign that Broadway is bouncing back is the arrival of new shows based on hit movies

“Mrs. Doubtful” is actually best when it goes on non-film flights of inspired nuttiness, like when a harried Doubtfire asks the computer assistant Siri for help cooking dinner and a full dance sequence breaks out, or when the stress of the subterfuge prompts a surreal number with 12 Doubtfires on stage at once.

I'm surprised Mrs Doubtfire hasn't been cancelled yet for mimicking trans or something.
