Alison Bechdel's iconic graphic novel comes to life in this Tony Award-winning masterpiece musical. Follow her journey of self-discovery as Alison recounts the mysteries of her childhood with her father in the family funeral home. Coming to understand her past leads her on a path of self-discovery and her own journey as an LGBTQ writer, artist, and woman. Join Virginia Stage for this groundbreaking musical enjoyed by play and musical lovers alike that brings forward aspects of our society that do not often take center stage.
Fun Home celebrates queer narratives in Hampton Roads with Fun Home Night Out - an evening of art and stories in downtown Norfolk on Friday, January 25. The evening features a pre-show mixer at the Wells Theatre with Happy Hour drinks and gallery display of "My Family" - a photo project produced by the LGBT Life Center, which celebrates the unique diversity of LGBTQ+ families in Hampton Roads. The celebration continues after the show with Outwire757's monthly "Out in the Open Story Slam" in the Tazewell Lounge.
Fun Home concludes on Sunday, February 10. Tickets range $20 - $55, with special discounts available for military, students, and groups.
Virginia Stage Company is southeastern Virginia's leading theatre destination, serving an audience of over 70,000 annually both at the Wells Theatre and throughout the community. Virginia Stage Company's mission is to "enrich, educate, and entertain the region by creating and producing theatrical art of the highest quality."
