WINNER! BEST MUSICAL 2015 TONY AWARDS
"A beautiful heartbreaker of a musical" "Achingly beautiful"
When her father dies unexpectedly, graphic novelist Alison Bechdel dives into her past to tell the story of the volatile, brilliant, one-of-a-kind man whose temperament and secrets defined her family and her life. Moving between past and present, Alison relives her unique childhood playing at the family’s Bechdel Funeral Home, her growing understanding of her own sexuality, and the looming, unanswerable questions about her father’s hidden desires. Adapted from Alison Bechdel's groundbreaking autobiographical graphic novel, Fun Home is a refreshingly honest, wholly original musical about seeing your parents through grown-up eyes.
"Fun Home isn’t just a coming out story or a coming-of-age story. Its undercurrent is of grown-up secrets, intuited by children, that exists to some degree in every family. Fun Home finds a shining clarity that lights up the night."
FUN HOME is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals. www.concordtheatricals.com
