Hands-on-dad Hugh Jackman takes a break from Broadway to do the school run with wife Deborra

 He is in the middle of performing a gruelling one man show on Broadway.
But doting father Hugh Jackman still spared the time to collect his six-year-old daughter Ava from school earlier today.
He joined his wife Deborra-Lee Furness and their French bulldog Dali as they strolled back to their home in New York.

The 43-year-old star recently revealed that his two children - Ava and 11-year-old Oscar are his sternest critics when it comes to his one man show Hugh Jackman: Back on Broadway.
'I said, "Guys, I want you to be really honest. My feelings won't be hurt. You can say whatever, but I just want to know if you like the show or not. Do you enjoy it?" he recalled to Public Radio Network.
'And my son goes, "You know, Dad, I really like it." I said, "Oh, great."

But the fans certainly seem to be appreciating his efforts with the Australian star raking in massive numbers at the Broadway box office.
After just two weeks of performing at the Broadhurst Theatre in New York, he broke the house record for amount of money made.
Additionally, the show is sold out every weekend through its ten-week run. 
But his movie career is also still going strong, with his next film Butter, being released in March next year.

The film co-stars Jennifer Garner, Ashley Greene, Alicia Silverstone, Ty Burrell and Olivia Wilde.
