Winner of seven Tony Awards, including Best Musical, and a Pulitzer finalist, Fun Home, directed by Stephen Schellhardt and music directed by Heidi Joosten, is a refreshingly honest, emotional and revolutionary musical. Based on Alison Bechdel’s critically acclaimed graphic novel, Fun Home shares how Bechdel unlocks memories, milestones and mysteries of her youth as she begins to write her first graphic novel. With a compassionate score and a brilliant script, Fun Home tells the story of seeing your parents through grown-up eyes.
