San Francisco
comedian and Bay Area native Scott Capurro appears as Aunt Jack, the lover
of Harvey Fierstein and a hairdresser in the 1993 comedy Mrs. Doubtfire.
Capurro launched his career at Josie's
Cabaret in the Castro before becoming known as a gay comedian on the
mainstream comedy circuit in the early 1990s. Shot on location in San Francisco,
Mrs. Doubtfire was a huge financial success for director Chris Columbus
and star Robin Williams. Williams plays a man who masquerades as a nanny
to spend time with his kids under the nose of his estranged wife, Sally
Field. Beauticians Capurro and Fierstein create the illusion. Capurro is
now a familiar radio personality and has a following in Europe. The Doubtfire
high jinx took place at 2640 Steiner Street
in
Pacific Heights.
