"I am so excited to take on the role of Small Alison in Fun Home! This is a character who goes on a very complex and emotional journey and I am looking forward to the challenge of portraying this journey in an honest and real way. I am so thankful to the WPPAC for this special opportunity and to share the stage with such an incredibly talented cast", says Bradley.

The 2015 Tony Award Winning Best Musical Fun Home is based on Alison Bechdel's best-selling graphic memoir. This groundbreaking production introduces us to Alison at three different ages, revealing memories of her uniquely dysfunctional family that connect with her in surprising new ways.
