It’s not your typical father-daughter bonding experience.
Rumer Willis opened in the role of Roxie Hart in “Chicago” just a month before dad Bruce Willis hit the Great White Way in “Misery,” which began previews on Oct. 22.
“Being on Broadway together for the first time has made us more equal in certain ways,” she told us at a RetailMeNot event Wednesday. “Now we can talk about how we survive eight shows a week or what we do when we strain our voices … We now have that in common. We’re both learning it together.”
Despite her often grueling schedule, the “Dancing With the Stars” alum is eager to support her Emmy Award-winning dad, 60, in the rehearsal studio as often as possible.
“She’s been around a lot,” an insider told The Post last month. “She’s very encouraging – he really depends on her.”
Meanwhile, on Wednesday the actress gushed to Page Six, “I’m just happy we’re in the same city even if we are both super-busy.”
After winning the coveted mirror ball trophy on Season 20 of “DWTS,” Bruce Willis and Demi Moore’s oldest daughter had to sit out the show’s summer tour after suffering a foot injury in June. The stress fractures in her right tootsie also delayed her Broadway debut by a month.
Rumer sympathized with “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star Kim Zolciak, who was disqualified from the latest season of “DWTS” after suffering a mini-stroke.
“I would have been devastated [if I had been cut],” the 27-year-old admitted. “But rules are rules.”
